Instability while Gaming (AMD Graphics Drivers Crash -- Alot)

Framework Desktop

Anyone else have the problem where the AMD GPU drivers crash – alot – during gaming? So far it’s happened 3 times TONIGHT while playing BF6’s story missions. One of the crashes happened and it recovered to desktop with the error code saying that the GPU was removed. That’s a common failure state of the driver apparently where it will “disconnect” the GPU in order to reboot it. I’m not sure if it stops sending power or whatever but it’s an interesting way to handle the problem. The other 2 times caused a BSOD and reboot. And with the 128GB model takes some time as I think it might be doing a core dump to SSD.

Yeah, mine is crashing any time the graphics card is used at all, not just for gaming. It’s crashed 3 times while writing this because Firefox is hardware-accelerated. I know this is a pretty new chip, but I’d expect it to at least function and it’s pretty disappointing to see how unstable it is.

I’m using Bazzite, which is supposedly a supported OS and I’m fully up-to-date on the last firmware updates which I’d hoped would stabilize things a bit but if anything have made it worse.
