Recently i got sapphire rx580 8gb nitro + special edition, 

 

And i have to say drivers are bad, i first installed Sept26 driver whuch was working ok with BF1 mainly, then i updated to optional driver in Sept which was working very bad on BF but wanted the driver for Odyssey which either ways runds badly, went back to downlaod Sept26 driver and it wasnt there (removed it from their site) and the recommended driver is published in May, installed new optional driver in Oct for BO4 in Oct and now it runs bad on BF1. 

 

Their recommended official driver is more than 5 months old!! 

Why do they publish that many optional driver that are badly optimized! 

 

5 months are they are still working on a new recommended driver.? Its not rocket science! nvidia used to launch a driver each month and sometimes less.. 

 

Although i like AMD but their drivers and Wattman is bad... I dont want to get into that their cards are also bad and cant run new games on decent FPS.

They have released 2 driver versions just this month, what the heck are you talking about.

 

Also this sounds like user error.

^^^ Also, what are the rest of your specs? Could totally be your CPU or something letting you down, not the GPU.

The real question is, why did you download optional drivers if the one you were using worked just fine?
Also, where are you getting your drivers from?

Becuae they supposed to support newer games, from AMD website or via amd sofrware

They are not security updates, you don't need to update your drivers every time a new one drops, unless you have to.

I went to their site and the newest driver was released a couple of days ago (25th) ?

2 optional drivers, they are like beta

Yet you're complaining about them... If you know they're "like beta" then why did you expect them to work flawlessly?
