Hello everyone!
So I have a problem with my dedicated AMD graphic card on my Samsung Laptop (specs and model down below). I'm running windows 10 (tried to downgrade to win 8, the original system, but it didn't change anything) and while running more GPU intensive games or processes in general, that process would freeze. Thought at first it might be a RAM problem, but it wasn't (I changed it). It's 100% the graphic cards fault.
I recently noticed that if I install the drivers from 2015 (so the basic, old ones) the games wont freeze, but of course with such unuptdated drivers the performance of the graphic card isn't really good. (with new graphic drivers, as suggested by amd software, the games run smoothly on high settings, but after a while they crash) I already tried to uninstall amd software and reinstall drivers plenty of times.. Has anyone any suggestions?
