Requesting your help to test the AMD Public Graphics Driver on Framework Laptop 13

We are planning to implement the AMD public graphics driver across all AMD products. We have a long-standing relationship with AMD and ask for your help in testing the driver to ensure there are no critical issues before we begin using it. Please feel free to send us any feedback. We will work with AMD to address it.

We will prepare a driver bundle with the latest version in the coming weeks. Until then, you can download the driver directly from the AMD website. This driver is compatible with the Framework Laptop 13 Ryzen 7040 and Ryzen AI300 series.

Following that link, what capabilities would my laptop miss if I were to install the Auto Detect and Install version rather than the Adrenalin Edition version. My laptop is the pre-built AI 370 with all current Windows 11 updates and FrameWork updates. So far, I’ve not used the Adrenalin software. Would I cripple my laptop in some way?

The AMD install by default also chooses to upgrade chipset drivers. Is that also planned to be the default path forward?

Looks like this driver pack is giving me reboots coming out of sleep. Not sure if it’s the graphics or chipset drivers, as Event Viewer doesn’t really give me a specific driver at fault.

I was on the latest drivers 25.8.1 drivers when I first saw these issues. I then downgraded to the versions in the 2.06 bundle and things were stable for roughly a week. Upon seeing this thread, I upgraded to 25.8.1 and immediately saw the issues come back. (4 times in the first day). I downgraded to the 2.06 bundle versions again, and everything is again stable.
