Are AMD drivers still fucked ?

Any Forums shills for AMD for free, but AMD clearly isn't there yet. So as much as I hate Intel, for the time being I'll have to live with a little bit of Israel inside my CPU because they clearly don't fuck CPUs up.

The open source drivers for Linux are unironically much better than the proprietary ones on any OS.

okay now compare benchmark/performance scores and not just temperatures, temperatures literally do not matter if you're not getting thermal-throttled

On Windows yeah but if you use Linux you want to be on AMD. However I like their sharpening filter that doesn't have any impact on performance, unlike Nvidia.
5800X is incredibly hot, most people go with 280MM AIO coolers at minimum. It's by design though, AMD allows the CPU to hit 80 degrees before throttling while Intel starts to at around 70-75 degrees.

12th gen wins especially with tuned DDR4.
5800X3D will win though if the game / application takes full advantage of it.

My 5800x is at 60 in most games with a hyper 212. Sounds like you had a shit airflow case if a noctua cooler was worse for you.

Fine on my polaris, but, somehow, i simply couldn't install 20.5.2 drivers, spat out some bullshit error. Ohwell.
Seen 360 aio hitting 75 degs in not even 100% loads, all things considered hardly a surprise, guess undervolting is mandatory.

My 5800x stopped peaking at 100C on random days after a BIOS update, extensive undervolting, AIO remounting, and fresh thermal paste
Yet it still will occassionally break past 75 when on a simple webpage in Firefox
I'm slowly leaning towards switching if it means my CPU isn't melting

I don't understand.
The latest drivers have been especially great, with performance improvements to old DX11 titles, as well as newer titles, as large as 15%.
Most will be in the 2-3% range, though, but it does help in a lot of games.
On the other hand, with a 6800XT, you're blowing away most DX11 games.

I don;t get it either. I picked up a 6900xt after having 5 nvidia cards in a row and I'm having no problems with games.

Nvidia driver software still looks like it comes from the early 2000s.

Only problem is that it can't handle vr porn over 6k.

The drivers are good now unfortunately the cards still suck ass.

I've actually had far less issues on this 5600XT than I have on the three Nvidia cards I had previously, which all fucked with me one day or another. Radeon Software is also a lot nicer than Nvidia's panel
CPU wise I don't really care, I guess the overclocking experience was a little smoother on my 7600K than on this 3600 but it's no big deal

rx 6600 xt and never had a single problem with drivers, I love the fucking card and is a beast at 1080p and more than capable at 1440p, only real downside is the lack of memetracing support.

No idea. Never had issues with my old 5750 and my new 6700xt past year has been fine.
