A more technical fix that has proven effective for some users is to perform a clean offline installation of the AMD graphics drivers using a third-party utility like Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU). DDU can help completely remove all traces of the current and previous Adrenaline drivers before reinstalling a fresh copy of the driver that you want.
For a more hassle-free solution, you can roll back the Adrenalin driver to an earlier version, such as Adrenalin 26.3.1, with DDU, since that version does not appear to have the Zero RPM bug. That means missing out on new features, optimizations, or security updates introduced in the latest releases, though.
Evelyne-Tourneciel has seemingly reported the issue to AMD. However, it seems that AMD hasn't acknowledged the bug or provided a solution. The latest Adrenalin 26.5.2 graphics driver, which just came out of the oven today, has no mentions of the Zero RPM bug. If you're experiencing the same issue, we recommend submitting a bug report to AMD so the chipmaker can get to the bottom of it.

Staying RightBehindYou I had to roll mine back because it disabled the display port after playing Battlefield 6 for 2 minutes. Reply
-Fran- Fortunately I haven't had any issues or gremlins with mine. I have a Sapphire 9070XT Pulse, so the "basic" model and all peachy so far. I do have the TRIXXXxxXXxxxXXXXX software as well, so that could be the reason why it's fine? Regards. Reply
Ogotai asus based nvidea cards have the same feature.. i usually use GPU tweak and set the fans @ 75% constant… id probably do the same if i had an amd card…. Reply

Jabberwocky79 I haven't noticed an issue yet, but I'll be on the lookout for sure. Reply
