Pretty sure there is a new WDDM version in this update.
Supporting this change is the main reason of this driver update. (I guess?)

Suppose to offer wddm 2.3

Type DXDiag and save it. There it should read wddm 2.2
After you update to Fall Creator Update 1709 (avail. today) and install updated drivers wddm should read 2.3

What's found so far
  1. Scan seems to be working. not working. I had to manually add steam games. But it picked up on Origin stuff.
  2. GPU Workload: Graphics or Compute.
  3. WDDM 2.3 Support

I'm not sure what that is yet. This is what I'm talking about. AMD is notorious for introducing performance and features that are not included in the release notes.

Among other things...

the mining driver always messed up on my system, caused instant artifact when mining starts.
Yeah let us know.
It's still not very clear why that was added. Not complaining that it was. It would be nice to know what it does from AMD though.

Someone said it has something to do with Performance Tab of Task Manager. But that makes no sense.

Here you go. Seems to have increased the mining speed, but I still don't have the option to switch from GPU- compute/gaming.

BTW settings are custom. 1000mhz core, 950mv, 1100 and 1050 MHz memory with 950mv. -17% power. Also the AMD control center freaks out when I resize. It gets all artifact like and freezes when I try. But works without a resize. Still no option under global settings for compute.

Edit* settled down and is mining at the same speed as before. ?

Overwatch still crashes with this driver. It is not mention in the notes.

I kinda don't understand your question, but I have already reverted back to 17.7.1 so I can play OW.

I've read that some are experiencing win10 forcing "its version of Crimson"over your fresh install of 17.40.
Mine says BETA from within Crimson's Radeon Software Version in Overview.
Yup It does that. You have to disable driver updating or it will update it every time win 10 check for updates.

I've seen that before and cant find it. Where is that at?

Edit:

I think I've figured it out.
Type Advance System Settings
Tab over to Hardware.
Select Device Installation Settings
Change Yes to No (your device might not work as expected).

I think that's right.

I appreciate that.
If all fails you might have to use DDU as it block such service from Microsoft.

DDU (display driver uninstaller) will run in safe mode and turn off auto driver updating. Then you reboot and install what you want.
