    VRAM properly clocks down at idle now.
    But clocks are stuck when playing a video.
    The enterprise drivers clock down to around ~500Mhz while watching videos...

    I upgraded to Windows 11 today and installed 21.10.1 and GPU-Z now says HAGS is supported, but it is disabled.

    I've checked the graphics settings, but there's no option to enable it.
    I'm aware performance gains are inconsistent and marginal at best, but it seems odd it would say it's supported but not allow me to enable it.
    Am I missing something?

    When i participated in to Win11 dev version before switching back to Win 10 i noticed the same thing and i also have a 6700 XT.
    I couldn't find an answer from anywhere how it could be switched on.

    For anyone who plays Wreckfest, how's your FPS and power usage? I can't get the game to use 180W or more of power which results in low FPS especially at the start when there are a lot of cars on screen. It varies from 110-160W. Those 20W make a big difference in FPS. The workaround of restarting the GPU driver using CRU or restarting to fix the power usage hasn't worked for a couple of months now. I think it might have started since the game update that added dirt to the cars but not sure. There must be a driver overhead or bottleneck or something with this game.

    It's not working as it should, so it's off for now.

    These fixes and the performance increases in FC6.... these maybe the best drivers yet :D

    5700XT here ...

    VRAM clocks always at max - 1750 Mhz

    Those drivers didnt fix anything for me.

    Dont know if its important but i have 3440x1440 100hz monitor.

    * Another thing, after install those drivers, SAM is not working ... with previous drivers it was working.

    I have 2 monitors. 1080p60Hz and 1440p144Hz.

    I have to drop the 144Hz monitor down to 120Hz and now the memory clocks go to idle.

    Maybe (and just maybe) It's the OS not the driver

    Same here, single monitor and clocks fixed ONLY dropping from 144 to 120hz. This is absurd. Crap drivers

    That is strange, I can disconnect my second monitor and just use my 144Hz monitor on its own and it still clocks down fine.

    This also happened on Nvidia for me as well when using multiple monitors with large differences/odd differences in refresh rates where memory clocks would stick to boost clocks.

    EDIT:

    Also this driver is excellent so far, the fixes it has brought are welcome and work excellent. I used to have a driver crash when playing Cold War and streaming a youtube video on my second screen after about 30 minutes of play. Now I was playing earlier for 2 hours and it was fine. Also a nice fps uplift in Cold War too, from around 190fps to 230fps which is welcome as Cold War played better on Nvidia and MW seemed to prefer AMD. Now its neck and neck pretty much.

    The fix for Wreckfest is also welcome, its been a while but its finally fixed and working great.

    Power consumption readings in the OSD are now also reporting more realistic values too.

    There is never a perfect driver its always going to have some issues due to nature of PC configurations. But this driver has brought more fixes than any driver so far this year.

    I once had the driver to not enable SAM too, after a restart it reappeared (6800). Probably some weird bug buried somewhere in the detection code, but why keep things simple...
