AMD driver quality is crap. I upgraded from GTX 1080 to RX 6950 XT because I found a good deal and I didn't want to support nvidia's scammy bullshit of launching inferior GPUs under the same names. Decided to go with AMD this time, and I had everything: black screens, resolution drops to 1024x768, total freezes, severe lags in some games (BG3) unless I downgrade the driver to a very specific version.
I have both 4090 (workstation) and 7900XT (to play some games) and I would say that 7900XT was rock solid for me for the last year (I purchased it in Dec 2023).
You assume that. I wish it was. This is my actual recent experience with AMD and their drivers. It did get better in the past few months, but I still occasionally get total freezes when only a hard reset helps.
