Radeon Software Adrenalin Edition 18.11.2 Highlights

Support For

Battlefield™ V

Fixed Issues:

Radeon RX Vega Series graphics products may experience elevated memory clocks during system idle.
Radeon Software update notifications may sometimes incorrectly list the currently installed driver as an available software update.

Known Issues:

Some systems running multiple displays may experience mouse lag when at least one display is enabled but powered off.
Assassin’s Creed™: Odyssey may experience a game crash at certain locations of the game on Windows®7 enabled system configurations.

Added Vulkan™ Extension Support

VK_AMD_memory_overallocation_behavior
This extension allows controlling whether explicit overallocation beyond the device memory heap sizes is allowed or not.

I had some weird specular issues with BFV with these (interiors on Rotters like are covered with shiny white liquid). Clean install seems to have fixed them.

DX12 in BFV is buggy as heck. These drivers fixed the drop in frame rate however, but still get crash to desktop. (it is a game issue, it is happening to many people, Nvidia/AMD, old and new cards)
 
One guy claimed this driver added AI for voltage and clocks. Prevents higher voltages from clicking in even when set. Anyone verify this? Apparently makes for more stable clocks...

ON Vega, there has always been a max voltage or capped, which they come set to those maxes (capped) by default. It is 1.2 volts P7 state on Vega 64 air cooled, and 1.25 volts P7 state on Vega 64 liquid cooled. It has never allowed you to go above that. Power limit slider goes to +50%, unless you mod higher power limit. It has always been that way. Besides, you don't add voltage to the Vega, you under volt it, which makes it run cooler, faster, and more stable. The Vega has always ran up to the max voltage set in the p6/p7 states if thermal temps allow, and it clocks up based on thermal head room, which at times can be well beyond what you have set in p7 state for clock speed and in some cases crashing because it spikes higher than the silicon can handle. (mine use to spike to 1780+ and crash when I converted my air cooled to liquid cooled, In fact, my silicon is not stable over 1720 regardless of good thermal temps). If the card is not hitting the voltage limits set in the p7 state, then the card is running into at thermal issue, which is usually the "hot spot" thermal reading, not the gpu thermal reading. (there are 3 temps on the Vega: GPU, Hot Spot, and Memory).

Anyhow, the guy doesn't understand how it works, or know what he is talking about.

After installing the November and now the 12.1 drivers....using clean installs, the AMD Radeon Settings won't come up on the Desktop for me.

Going to revert to earlier drivers.

I've reverted to the October driver which I know was working. I still cannot get the AMD Radeon Settings to come up onto the Desktop...simply will not open!
