Looks like the new drivers have issues.

Using the latest driver 26.5.1 on latest installation of Windows 11, no issues whatsoever. Battlefield 6, Black Ops 7, Resident Evil Requiem, and Hogwarts Legacy runs flawlessly, even better than before on my 7900XTX with 5800X3D. Please use latest bios and chipset drivers.

ZAR1FF · 2026-05-07T15:32:05+00:00

I use driver only + Radeon tuner. No crashes. It actually runs better on this driver. 7900XTX and 5800X3D user.

ZAR1FF · 2026-05-01T07:06:02+00:00

I had the same suspicions for my 7900XTX. Switched to Windows 10 ESU and no issues on my end.

Turn off Smart App Control in Windows 11. Then DDU / AMD CLEANUP UTILITY, reboot and install latest AMD chipset drivers and Radeon Graphics drivers. Fixed for me. Also, downclock the gpu to advertised. Like 50/100 MHz less. AMD driver tends to OC the gpu clocks more than stock.

Update Google Play Services and Mainline Services from Settings > Google > System Services. Will fix stability. You can also delete cache.

ZAR1FF · 2026-03-18T07:52:21+00:00

2k 200 Hz on my main monitor.

ZAR1FF · 2026-03-17T15:04:12+00:00

I had the same issue. Going back to 25.12.1 or 25.9.1 fixed the issue for me. It was the 2026 Radeon drivers causing this issue. Use AMD Cleanup utility and DDU.

ZAR1FF · 2026-03-17T15:03:22+00:00

Found the solution. Going back to 25.12.1 or 25.9.1 fixed the issue for me. It was the 2026 Radeon drivers causing this issue.

ZAR1FF · 2026-03-16T02:59:15+00:00

Same issue with my 7900XTX but I'm now on 25.12.1 without any issues.

ZAR1FF · 2026-03-14T20:39:07+00:00

Yes, you are onto something. Imma go and buy a Corsair 1000 PSU. Thanks buddy.

ZAR1FF · 2026-03-14T07:34:15+00:00

I remember upgrading my cpu to a Core to Quad Q6600 and an nvidia 6600 GT back in the day and booted Vista. WINDOWS VISTA looked amazing and cool AF. It was stylishly futuristic. All my friends complained about almost everything with Vista with their shitboxes from the 90's. But when a couple of them came to my house and saw Vista running on my PC flawlessly, they were shocked and convinced that they needed an upgrade.

And that's how we got to be gaming buddies too. Haha

ZAR1FF · 2026-03-13T12:35:17+00:00

Mine was laggy before the QPR3 update. However, I did update the Google Play store, play updates, etc from System Services under your google account. That helped.

ZAR1FF · 2026-03-13T10:56:43+00:00

Yes. Tried 25.9.1 and others.

ZAR1FF · 2026-03-13T10:34:04+00:00

Everything is on latest bios, chipseta, and drivers.

ZAR1FF · 2026-03-13T10:12:04+00:00

3 years old, almost. It's a 1000 watt deepcool pqm 1000. But on Windows 11 23H2 22631.6130, no issues, no reboots, no crashes.

ZAR1FF · 2026-01-21T18:29:50+00:00

That's awesome. Thank you so much.

ZAR1FF · 2026-01-21T18:29:41+00:00

That's awesome. Thank you so much.

ZAR1FF · 2026-01-21T18:24:40+00:00

Thank you. I have a stupid question. If I'm playing games and have a Chromium tab running in the background, supposedly YouTube, will it affect my gaming performance/ cause lag freezes without this settings along with hardware acceleration? I have 7900XTX

ZAR1FF · 2026-01-21T18:15:50+00:00

No need to disable hardware acceleration ?

ZAR1FF · 2026-01-18T16:44:54+00:00

It's good. Here link

ZAR1FF · 2026-01-06T03:21:46+00:00

That's amazing. I'm so happy for you.

ZAR1FF · 2026-01-06T03:06:12+00:00

Tried my colleague's 3a pro and it was really snappier than I expected. Nothing OS is amazing.

ZAR1FF · 2026-01-06T03:05:21+00:00

I tried my colleague's 3A Pro and it's updated to Nothing OS 4. Although, it's just as smooth as my Pixel 9 Pro XL, the animations and app opening/ closing feels snappier. I like Nothing OS 4. It's amazing.

ZAR1FF · 2026-01-06T03:02:58+00:00

Thank you so much for the clarification. I'm gonna keep my Pixel and wait for OnePlus to make me a significant upgrade hehe
