Video driver crash without recovery

I have contacted AMD about this about half a year ago, where the screen would suddenly go black afrer a brief freeze during playing League, with the music still playing, and then wouldn't recover until reset.

They told me to direct this at Riot cause it wasn't on their side apparently, so I did, and I really don't remember the resolution I've come to. I just know I figured out the problem myself and fixed it by disabling the feature.

Now, 6 months later with new AMD Crimson Software and drivers, I tried re-enabling said features, and got the same crash on League of Legends. Black screens out of nowhere, have to restart. Even now it's not been fixed. I've turned to AMD support and yet again have been told to turn to Riot, so here I am

Issue: With Enhanced Sync or Radeon Anti-Lag enabled, the screens lose connection from the graphics card and the connection isn't restored until the computer is rebooted

Fix: Disabling Radeon Anti-Lag and Enhanced Sync for League of Legends fixes it


My setup: 2 monitors, both connected via DisplayPort One is a 1080p 60hz monitor, not primary The primary monitor is a 1080p 144hz FreeSync monitor, primary.

Radeon RX 5700 XT Ryzen 5 3600 2x8GB 3200Mhz RAM CL14

League settings: 1080p Borderless Very High settings Character Inking on FPS cap 144 FPS, Wait for V-Sync not enabled

I am having this issue, though im only running a AMD RX 580. Sometimes it also doesn't full crash my computer. it will load back up and then make a bugsplat. Does that happen to you?

Is this only a AMD issue?

I get the same issue as well, though I'm able to recover from it after "signal lose" appears on my monitor. Hell, I get a bug splat just even logging into League and sitting in menus... I'll try your "fix" solutions and hope that i works. Though these bug splats didn't start until the count down till Season 10 started. So whatever update that was, that's what really started it.

I only work with one screen. I'm running with a AMD Vega 56. Though I only have this problem in ARAM. Then again, it sometimes doesn't even crash. Though the yesterday the game did actually crash my computer. But It never seemed to do this when in ranked matches for me.
