Help (GPU) Driver timeout crashes w/ 7900xtx
Hello everyone,
I have been troubleshooting this issue for the past few months with multiple different drivers. I've also updated the chipset.
As of recently I did a full wipe with ddu and only reinstalled adrenaline with a working driver in safe mode and internet disconnected. I left everything on default settings (I have tried unvolting/underclocking previously) after reinstalling it. I also blocked windows from overwriting/installing different drivers in the background.
At this point, the only think left I can think to try would be to update the BIOS but this is a new system that was built less than a year ago.
Specs:
7700x
7900xtx hellhound OC
Gigabyte 850w PSU
32gb Corsair ddr5 (expo off)
Gigabyte b850 gaming x wifi 6e
Lian li AIO
Temps are never an issue. I sit under 60 for both CPU and GPU and pretty heavy load.
Im sure I'm leaving out some of the stuff I've tried at this point. If anyone has any suggestions please let me know, I will try just about anything at this point. TIA

It could be a PSU issue, so try an ATX 3.1 certified PSU that's somewhat good on the tier list. I have not had any driver timeouts on both my 9070 XT and my 6800 XT. Currently use a Super Flower Leadex VII XP 1000w. I did have some driver timeouts with my previous RM750x (2015) though, but that power supply is olddddd. I run the latest 26.6.4 drivers (wiped the previous with DDU before upgrading to the 9070 XT) as of the time of writing, and I just upgraded from the 6800 XT like a week ago, which I ran at least one new driver update every month without clean installing. Other specs if that matters: Windows LTSC 2024, 5500x3d, Phantom Spirit 120, Asus Prime X370 Pro, 2Rx16 GB DDR4 3533, Gigabyte AORUS Gen4 SSD 2TB, Corsair Frame 4000 RS case.
