No Drivers Work Right With PowerColor RX 470
Ever since I built my computer, I've been getting BSODs, Freezing, Hanging, and Crashing. All of the BSOD errors were VIDEO_TDR_FAILURE (Caused my atikmpag.sys). I tried everything that I could think of, update Windows, update AMD drivers, update BIOS, update ALL drivers, memtest, chkdsk, sfc, HDD tests, DDU, check for overheating, and more. I think that I solved most of that problem though, I installed the drivers provided my PowerColor on their website, and haven't gotten any more BSODs, but it's only been about 12 hours, only time will tell. After installing the PowerColor drivers, I was greeted by another strange issue, constant screen flickering. I got the screen flickering using 2 different PowerColor drivers, the one I got off their website, and the one on the disk that came with it. After about an hour of fiddling around in the settings, I found the culprit; my display was set to 144hz. My monitor can display 144hz just fine, and the AMD drivers let me use 144hz on my monitor. It doesn't flicker on any thing lower than 144hz though, such as 120hz, 75hz, 60hz, etc. I'm glad that it's no longer crashing, but I'd really like to get the full potential out of my monitor, but I can settle for 120hz until I find a fix. Is there any way to fix this? I DID try to update the monitor drivers, but that didn't change anything. Also, I did reseat my GPU, rotated the RAM sticks, and secured connections in my computer, but that didn't fix the flickering, but I haven't checked if it got rid of the BSODs on AMD drivers, as I had already installed the PowerColor drivers, do you think it's worth checking?
