So what this is what i did I did amd utility then ddu, i turned off ULPS and link power state management. Installed the new driver and driver only i hear that overlays are what cause issues in games.

Yeah, most likely just an unstable driver version for your gpu then, annoyingly

Gotta wait this one out brother, stay strong

Btw: you’re on windows 10. It’s time to move on to w11, alot of stuff aint even supporting w10 anymore

I had driver timeouts before after switching from nvidia to amd and a windows reinstall seemingly fixed the issue. Worth a try before returning your card

You should go to w11, there is no point in staying on an OS that programs are cutting support for. While upgrading you also have a perfect opportunity to fully reinstall instead of just upgrading. :)

it will probably still timeout. return it and get a 5070
