Shulou(Shulou.com)11/24 Report--

Thanks to CTOnews.com netizens Wu Yanzu in South China for the delivery of clues! CTOnews.com, December 22, AMD's new RX 7900 series GPU, especially the XT version, is experiencing some kind of high energy consumption problem. Both 7900 XTX and XT show very high power consumption in the case of video playback and multi-monitor connections.

CTOnews.com learned that when running these tasks, it seems that the GPU of the entire AMD will be activated, not just the media engine block and the display processing block. Or maybe there is something wrong with the processor performance state.

Today, AMD released the latest WHQL adrenaline driver version 22.12.2, which fixes the high energy consumption of video playback, but the high energy consumption of using multiple monitors still exists.

The problems fixed in this version are:

Problems may be encountered when using virtual super resolution in a multi-monitor configuration.

A system crash may occur when changing the display mode in a 4-monitor configuration.

When loading "Spider-Man: miles Morales", application crashes or driver timeouts may occur when RayTracing settings are enabled.

Power consumption during hardware accelerated video playback has been improved and power efficiency is planned to be further improved in future versions.

At the same time, known problems are as follows:

High-altitude idle power is sometimes observed when using selected high-resolution and high refresh rate monitors.

Intermittent application crashes or driver timeouts may occur when using Radeon super resolution and some extended display configurations.

During game and video playback, video stutter or performance degradation may be observed in some extended monitor configurations.

The stutter phenomenon may occur at the beginning of the game "Mystery Sea 4: the end of thieves".

When playing "Valheim", using Vulkan API may cause the application to crash or the driver timeout. Any user who may encounter these problems should choose DirectX API as a temporary solution.

Some virtual reality games or applications may perform less than expected.

Users can download the new 22.12.2 driver from AMD's website.
