Should I use AMD Hotfix Driver?

InfernalSurge · May 1, 2016

Hi, I'm not sure if I should use AMD's 16.3.2 driver or the latest 16.4.2 hotfix driver. The 16.4.2 hotfix says it fixed "a small subset of AMD Radeon™ R9 380 users may be experiencing slower than expected fan speeds," and I'm scared that the normal 16.3.2 driver will have fan issues (which I have experienced with previous Crimson drivers). Which driver should I download?

I would rather have my fans running right then risk them not and over heat the card that could cause damage if not noticed ??

if there was not a issue there would not be a need for the fix ??

in the end that's your call on what you feel is best for you

so for me yes I would use the ''fixed '' driver over one that's broken... [opinion]

good luck

Thanks for replying. So I should use the hotfix driver?

to me its the smart move ? why take the chance the one causes your fans to fail in some way ?? may do something for you then it may not but at least you got the fix in there so your covered ??
