I haven’t installed the new driver yet. Any other negatives out there before I do?

Well I Installed the driver fresh using DDU and I could not even get past the loading screen without an error and it crashing. Apprently on the AMD Forums there is alot of people having issues with games stuttering, drivers crashing alot of people are going back to 22.5.1 which is what I went back to. So its up to you if you wanna try it but honestly to me it didnt work.

Did a quick test flight yesterday and had no issues with this new driver.

No noticable issues.

So Im not going to install the new driver :hear_no_evil:

It would seem that, given the very rapid introduction of 22.10.3, that The Aviator3506 offered sound opinion. I certainly took note, did a wee bit of digging and did not install 22.10.2. So, thank you.
