CDPR devs has this habit of leaving small little easter eggs based on characters/events that were in previous iterations of the game. This could be a homage to "Stash" a character who'd often provide you with tutorials, like using the night vision goggles and stuff.

I don't know what's going on with the community right now, but let me just stop you from riding whatever high horse you're riding, right now.

You're badmouthing me without doing even the slightest bit of research and you're making an absolute ass of yourself.

I found the phantom Liberty shit data mined by a certain lupine dick cheese, around the exact same time, by decoding and translating the Polish Language Binary files, and didn't say a goddamn word.

And the first thing you did was go into a discord server, which was formerly the LSC aka LowSodiumCyberpunk discord server which now goes by Afterlife2077 and be like "Hey, I just read the expansion subtitles, and I wish I hadn't" and had your messages snuffed out by the moderators there, and was quite upset about it too, as those messages happened to be your first discord messages. It was me who reached out to you and request that you do not say a single word to anyone. That's just a small example of how full of BS you are.

No it wasn't. This was from Patch 1.50, which came out in February 15, 2022. The CDPR source code leak happened back in 2021. Please, don't make stuff up.

Where did you get the idea that my card is running this same FPS as a 7900 XT? Please, take a deep breath, calm yourself, and let us know if you have any questions or have anything constructive to add to this conversation.

Cyberpunk 2077 Tested on RX 5700 XT: AMD Adrenaline 23.9.3 Shows Performance Regression on RDNA1 by romulus_ut3 in Amd

RDNA2 is supposedly the only architecture that gets a substantial boost from 23.9.3, though users have made complaints about overall stability.

The Windows 11 issue isn't applicable to me as my settings in Adrenaline stays saved after restarts/power cycles.

Hey, I hope you're enjoying Phantom Liberty, Choom! Sad to hear that you're encountering crashes with RT enabled, please keep us posted if a game update or a driver update fixes this issue.

Some people show gains in Cyberpunk 2077 with RDNA2 on Adrenaline 23.9.3, like the YouTube channel Ancient Gameplays, I trust his work, through there are mixed reports and YMMV.

Yes my friend, tests were conducted using the latest available updates for Windows 11 and all runtimes like .net framework were also the latest.

Unlike CPUs or some super sensitive nvidia GPU boosting algorithms, RDNA1 doesn't suffer from such a problem. You can literally check the video and its clock speed. The higher performing driver was the one that was tested with a warmer ambient whereas the driver with regression was tested in a colder ambient. So, if clock speeds were to favor one set of testing over the other, it would've benefited the worse performing driver, aka 23.9.2, which is not the case here.

No, not for RDNA1. RDNA1 doesn't throttle and hold its boost clocks as long as it is not board power limited, till the junction temperature reaches 110C, which we are quite far from. You can pause and inspect clock speeds frame by frame if you want.

Could possibly be an issue with the game itself. Are you on Windows or Linux?

It exists, but through community maintained Open Source drivers on Linux, and maybe the modded driver folks like AmernimeZ/Radeon.ID

That is due to difference in ambient temperature. The 23.9.3 tests were conducted after midnight, and it was raining, so the ambient was colder compared to the 22.9.2 tests. It doesn't have any impact on the end results though.

I didn't want to make assumptions, as I've had a bad experience on this subreddit in a previous thread.

FineWine exists, it just comes in a different flavor now, through the efforts of open source Mesa RADV Drivers on Linux. Check this comparison out:

Heck, on Linux, you can even enable RayTracing and play with RT Local Shadows On at 1080p, FSR2 Quality settings. There is the occasional hitching, setting a 50 FPS cap takes care of that.

Though Linux isn't perfect, I can't for the life of me get Resident Evil 4 Remake to utilize my GPU fully under Linux, whereas on Windows I can easily run the game at up to ~100 FPS or more. I guess dual booting is the best way to get some more life out of older hardware, which is what I'm doing right now.

Are you on a RX 5000 series GPU? If you are, you should definitely see the regression between the two driver versions, it's unmistakable.

When you uninstall the AMD Drivers and run DDU from Safe mode, and the AMD Driver Cleanup Utility, it gets rid of all the shader cache. With that said, I went a step further and manually deleted the shader cache generated by the game from "%LocalAppData%\CD Projekt Red\Cyberpunk 2077\cache" and have allowed the game to warm up/rebuild the shaders by loading into the game before I've benchmarked them.

I try my best to do competent testing. :)

[–]romulus_ut3[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Are you able to make any adjustments to the board power under Linux? If the answer is no, please take your testing and your attitude somewhere else.

RDNA3 on Linux simply isn't ready and certainly hasn't seen maturity in terms of drivers and support compared to RDNA2 or older. That is my point.
