![]() ![]() I had missed a UEFI update from Asus released between November and January, and AMD recommended setting the motherboard to specifically use PCIe 3.0 on its x16 slots rather than “Auto” for link speed detection. I didn’t make a big deal of it in the review because 1) I’d already been planning to do the all-AMD system evaluation project in the first place, 2) I couldn’t be sure the problem wasn’t in the early review driver (and believe me, this happens), and 3) None of my fellow reviewers at other sites were reporting any issues with the same GPU and motherboard combination, which typically indicates the problem is specific to the reviewer’s hardware.Īfter the review ran, I worked with AMD to troubleshoot the issue. Swapping from the 5600 XT to the 5700 XT didn’t solve the issue. Every time I tried, the driver would hit 67 percent and the display would turn black. I wrote that review on an all-AMD testbed, partly because I genuinely wanted to take a look at midrange gaming on a platform that we know is increasingly popular in the desktop enthusiast space - but it was also partly because I had trouble getting the driver to install on an Intel platform. I reached out to AMD to discuss these issues because they sound similar to some problems I encountered during the 5600 XT review.
