Here’s the direct link to the preview drivers on their site:

Thanks for posting the link, it wasn’t letting me.
8 days strong and no crashes in WoW, I don’t remember the last time things were so smooth in this game. And besides no more crashing the new drivers got my 7900 xtx running great in other games too.
No problem and for future reference, if you want to post a link: Select the text and press ctrl+e or click the </> button in the formatting stuff at the top of the text box.
One of our PCs has a 7900xt, but I haven’t tested anything on it recently. I know it was having issues with multiple other games and apps, so hopefully the driver moves out of the preview version soon.

Have you tried enable AMFM? found any issue? i’m kinda worried to enable and be banned like Valve did
No, I haven’t tried it yet, but I there’s really no need to with a 7900xt and with an MMO in general. It’s pretty easy to get at least 60fps in WoW, on just about any hardware configuration assuming you adjust your graphics, and there’s really not much point going above 80-100fps with an MMO anyways. Once you’re in that range, you hit a brick wall of diminishing returns where your eyes are no longer able to tell that you’re going even higher in frame rates.
If I get some time this week, I might give it a try.

Like others in this thread i’ve had random black screen crashes on my 7900xtx but it was always super random. Could take 20 mins of gameplay or go days at a time without a single crash.
Just installed the latest driver update through Adrenalin and hoping that’s the fix we’ve been waiting for. Will report back if same issues happen again.
For reference, I’ve never had the same issue in any other game.
Just installed the latest driver and did a full DDU uninstall and wow reinstall and had a crash 10 minutes into an Ashenvale battle in SoD 
7900XTX on DX12.
back to DX11 I guess for another 6 months until someone gets around to fixing this.
classic sod black screened on me with the new drivers but retail has not crashed yet.
24.1.1 amd drivers
24.1.1 drivers, 7900 XT, clean install. Had the long load time on initially opening retail, and then a driver crash about 15 minutes into play while running Mythic+.

Within the Adrenalin settings, try clearing out the shader cache. There’s an option in there for it somewhere, can’t remember where it got moved to in a recent UI change. After you do that, reboot the PC and try again.
Make sure to close out of every single other thing and double check to make sure that zero extra apps are running in your icon tray. Things like mouse and keyboard softwares especially. Anything that can potentially use hardware acceleration and/or overlays basically.
Double check the task manager to make sure that they don’t have any background services still running as well. If they do, you might be able to kill the tasks, but you might also need to go into the startup options tab and disable all of them from booting (some can be annoying and run services that still autostart from the task scheduler)
The times I’ve seen issues with our 7900xt were when there were other things touching the GPU while trying to game. Granted, while the crashes I experienced were with several other games, the issue is a driver+windows issue and the steps I took to fix it for those other games are likely applicable here as well.
EDIT: Here’s a good example of what I’m talking about:
Over on the Nvidia driver threads on Reddit, someone was talking about the stuttering issues that are still present and an Nvidia rep responded with
“It is not an NVIDIA driver bug however we have been trying to come up with a workaround. This is why I have been requesting logs from users to make sure our solution covered all types of PC configurations.”
along with
“Soon after our next Game Ready Driver release, we will be releasing a hotfix driver which will have a solution for this issue.”
(new Nvidia drivers came out today, but this fix they are talking about will likely be in a hotfix release in a week or two)
What they are talking about is likely some recent Windows change that they have to create workaround for. AMD is likely in the same boat, but aren’t handling it as gracefully and it’s leading into things like buggy/slow shader compilation and hard crashes.
Which latest driver? The one I ripped as their standard off the website never worked, and I’ve been using the AFMF preview drivers (23.40.01.10) with my 6700 XT. I also disabled MPO, but that seems to be a fix for an adjacent issue.
The only setting I even have enabled with it is the Radeon Anti-Lag, though. Beyond that, a small underclock. I had to go through the long initial startup for the shader cache with it.
24.1.1, latest release
I just updated to 24.1.1 driver version, anyone know if it have solved the driver issue?
In my testing no, it hasn’t.

I’ve played for 3 days straight now with no issues since I updated to the latest driver. Looks good on my end.

I’ve stopped getting crashes while running in DX12. The only thing I changed was turning off hardware acceleration on my browser and Discord. My card is a 7900xtx.
Just in case those of you are wondering, AMD Radeon 7000 is NOT listed as a supported video card…
Only because it wasn’t released at the time of that document.
The rtx 40 series isn’t listed as supported either.

Was your driver updated to most recent version?
I’ve tried with the latest AFMF preview driver and 24.1.1 driver in Windows 11, still driver timeouts happening randomly in-game. Back to Nobara Linux for a solid gameplay experience.
