It’s a shame that they show me that AMD really has no interest in users who don’t use video cards to play.
I bought the Radeon RX 7800 because it seemed like a good option and to try out AMD video cards.
I previously had an nVidia GTX 1070ti video card, a very good video card with support for both gamers and professionals.
Since my computer is based mainly on AMD components, I thought that having the famous ecosystem that AMD sells
would be a good option.
It’s a regrettable disappointment to see that AMD releases driver after driver just thinking about games.
I’m not saying it’s a bad card, but the truth is that I don’t notice anything but concern for the blessed games.
My problem is not the D5 Render, since the program improves version after version and now version 2.9.1 works, but
with the 24.5.1 drivers from the middle of the year…
It’s more that the latest drivers, after several tests, run much slower, when they manage to run the program than the old ones…
The same images took 4K 3.14 and 16K 11.56 minutes with version 24.5.1 and then with version 24.12, 4K 3.38 and 16K 12.40 minutes…
And trying more than once they barely changed the values in less than 2 seconds… that is, a driver that barely works and badly…
Small adjustment… if you remove all the AMD programs and only the driver remains in both cases the time goes down a few seconds, I think it is due to the unnecessary load that the Radeon programs generate…
And D5 Render improved from version 2.8 to 2.9 and to 2.9.1… the problem doesn’t seem to be there.
Hi mate, sorry to hear that , maybe you need contact AMD support to help you check your GPU card, because we tested with several AMD 7000 series but did not encounter the same problem. By the way, have you tried upgrading to Win 11 system?
Hello
I contacted AMD technical support.
They responded quickly. I sent them all the information possible to find a solution. They sent me an email in which they told me that my PC seems to be correctly configured and working well and that the problem is with the program. What they told me seems wrong and I think that they are not taking responsibility for anything. I am also surprised by the speed of their response. It only took them a couple of hours to reach that conclusion.
From D5 Render technical support, I see a better response and customer service. I say customer because I pay for the PRO version.
But neither AMD or D5 Render technical support give me a real solution.
Changing my Windows 10 to Windows 11, without really having a technical response that validates said change, is not something I want to do and I don’t know if it is a solution.
With the driver version 24.5.1 the program manages to make the images I need, either in version 2.8 or now 2.9.1.
For now that’s enough for me.
But I really hoped to find a solution or one that they gave me that has some technical validity. An explanation of why it’s not working properly with the new video card drivers.
All the other programs work correctly, so the problem lies between D5 Render and the new drivers.
If I see it possible to change the version of Windows I will do it later.
Really Windows 11 doesn’t have anything that I need different from Windows 10 or any improvement that is really worth it to make the change.
Greetings
that said when you use a GPU for computer graphics it is a bit of a professional suicide to use AMD. Since the democratization of the use of GPU calculation for 3D (around 2010), you can see on any forum that the couple that works best is Nvidia Intel. Without wanting to advertise, just a reality checked by use.
