AMD black screen crashes.

Hello everybody,

I’ve been struggling with this issue for a while now. My PC randomly goes to a black screen while browsing or opening games. When it happens, the entire system freezes, the audio cuts out, and I’m forced to restart the PC manually.

I also tried using the Windows shortcut to reset the graphics drivers, but it does not work once the black screen happens.

What’s strange is that I previously managed to temporarily fix the issue by disabling FreeSync on my monitor. However, after getting a new monitor, the problem came back even with FreeSync disabled again.

So far I have tried:

  • Reinstalling Windows
  • Performing a clean GPU driver installation
  • Disabling RAM profiles/XMP
  • Disabling MPO

Unfortunately, none of these solutions have worked.

The issue is also very difficult to reproduce because it happens completely randomly. It never occurs while actually gaming — it mostly happens while browsing or when switching some games into fullscreen mode.

System specs:

  • GPU: AMD RX 6950 XT
  • CPU: Intel i5-14600K
  • RAM: 32GB Corsair DDR4
  • rm850W corsair PSU
  • B660 AORUS MASTER DDR4
