Hi all .;]
Need help with this, i got a new pc build not the greatest but good enough ,
anyway i put my rx 6800 in my gpu 3 weeks ago and running fine and after driver update i think it just does not want to work, it crashes soon as i start any game . but can play doom and was playing crew 2 fine . i need help ive tried alot of things and nothing .
was going to try putting card in old pc ,ill let u guys know :]

<<< things ive tried .>>>>
uninstalling drivers in Safe mode installing drivers back
reset pc
clean windows 11 pro install
free sync turn off
disabling Xmp does not let me boot ,so cannot disable that option
tried 2 cables pcie, nothing .,was working fantastic with 1 cable .
I've reinstalled some games hence the clean windows install

<<<<MY PC SPECS >>>
WINDOWS 11 PRO

32.0 GB (31.7 GB usable) ram

TEST UPDATE AT 2/9/2024 12:30 PM

it does not want to install driver in my older pc windows 10 pc idk whats going on with .
was running amd adrenaline install driver and froze 86 percent .then error came up that driver could not be intalled .
It finally installed a driver by itself and it kinda works
ya it plays doom really nicely and marvel vs capcom ultimate marvel 3 and other games crash few minutes into the game .
i installed auto driver and it went back a driver from 2023 idk why .

these are contradictory statements.
it either crashes with any game or it doesn't.
after driver update i think it just does not want to work...uninstalling drivers in Safe mode
it can't be a driver issue if your previous card still runs fine.
if you're just using Windows resources to uninstall, try using DDU instead.
tried 2 cables pcie, nothing .,was working fantastic with 1
what do you mean;
you get no display with 2, but a single works?

are you using some sort of adapter for PCIe or cables?

both cables work pcie cables coming from Psu are for gpu only .
the cables are called pcie cables idk why .

i installed auto driver and it went back a driver from 2023 idk why .
So does anyone think i should bother with DDU and reinstall drivers . since atleast 2 games work fine.
on my new pc was doing same thing . and when i installed adrenaline or update driver it got worse.
 
right know no games work
atleast 2 games work fine
so, which is it?
was running amd adrenaline install driver and froze 86 percent .then error came up that driver could not be intalled .
It finally installed a driver by itself and it kinda works
again, which is it?
it either stopped and wouldn't install or it worked?

are you trying to say that you are just running with Windows' generic MS drivers?
does anyone think i should bother with DDU and reinstall drivers
yes, always.
you will getting limited performance from the hardware without proper drivers.

what source are you using for your Windows installations?
