New amd beta driver crashing gpu's

Xsilent(X)

Seems like the new amd beta driver crashing down gpu's

These artifacts are always popping up everywhere on boot and in the os, can't even boot into safe mode even other amd gpu's are the same artifacts on boot needed to place a 960 to wipe out the driver. ReTweet this that amd needs to know this.

Lol and I thought we needed a source for this. 

 

Reinstall driver, use DDU. Or go back to the older stable version.

Which is from, what, five years ago?

 

An exaggeration, of course, but still a nagging issue overall for AMD.

Both camps have had some rough patches. Nvidia has also had an entire branch that caused issues with SLI users in particular.

no, they have been making very stable drivers, just go back one or two versions and he should be fine

The problem is that I would say 50% or more of AMD's driver releases are beta drivers.

Yea, there are normally lots of beta realses before the final one. If you care about stability never run beta

I was referring to the classification contrast between "beta" and "stable/WHQL".

Again, from the differences between classifications, I respectfully disagree.

Most AMD drivers are beta drivers. you'll usually get a handful of WHQL drivers per year at best.

No source? Could be an isolated incident.

Its a beta driver... revert to previous driver

Erm... the last non-beta AMD driver was from end of March.

I can confirm that the gpu's are dead at the same time omg. Drivers broke my cards. Thanks teamred does not even post with them. With the 960 no problem.

Problem is WHQL does not mean stable. Some of these unstable drivers have been WHQL certified. It's meaningless.

In the same way an Nvidia Game Ready (that's newspeak for beta) can be stable or not stable.

An AMD WHQL driver has also been unstable fairly recently I believe. It's really just a load of bollocks at this point. 

 

Look for a known stable driver (if a recent driver is not stable, rollback to the previous one or research it) whether it says WHQL, beta, game ready - that's all you can go by. The terms themselves have no relevance.

The drivers won't break the card, and is this just one incident, proof of multiple would be good.

Yea, like Nvidia. First driver install and I already had to downgrade. Still had bsods but isn't as severe as the latest ones.

At least it clearly says it's a beta driver, compared to some nvidia driver issues in the past :P

Stuff like this can happen, i'm expecting this will be solved soon if the trend of amd driver releases continues.

If you want my attention, quote meh! D: or just stick an @samcool55 in your post :3

Either it's PEBCAC or you just go back to 16.6.1. No problem for me here.

WHQL certication means you sent it to Microsoft and they blindly rubber stamp it after you pay them a fee. It does not require any proof of stability or function.

AMD's drivers have been rock solid stable for me for 3 years now, there has not been a release that i have had a major problem with....and i am running the usually troubling triple monitor setup....Sure my 3rd monitor doesn't always switch on right away (seems much better with this driver). but other than that they have been fine.

 

The drivers are just Beta in name.........Have you ever seen a final driver?  

 

OP....it's more likely that you card just failed and was on its way out before you installed the latest driver, rather than the driver killing your card....

 

I highly doubt the driver caused your card to go to full load with excess voltage without turning your fans on....which would have had to have happened to have killed it in such away as you are showing. It probably an unlucky coincidence that your card died while installing new drivers..........oh well, shit happens.

 

What you are showing in your screen happened to my old 8800gts a few weeks ago, the Gpu just died, no driver install to cause it, it just died.

 

Unlucky :(

By the way, you need to report bugs to AMD if you want a fix. It doesn't really help to post it here unless you hope for it blow up to the point it somehow reaches AMD.

@Xsilent(X) Report it here if you actually want AMD to see the report and fix the issue: www.amd.com/report

this should be moved to troubleshooting or graphics card section. Somebody's pc crashing is not news.
