Hi folk, just sharing an issue and solution I’ve had with my Framework desktop. Games occasionally froze the whole PC, leaving only a hard reboot as an option. It’s a known AMD driver issue, found on Reddit as well though without solution. The solution is to download and reinstall the drivers provided by Framework in the support section. Do NOT install driver updates from AMD directly. These caused the freezes. Problem solved now.
