AMD RX590 locks up desktop under moderate to high usage
by MT5496 from LinuxQuestions.org on (#5905M)
Hello, i am currently having an issue where if i load my GPU (AMD XFX RX590 Fatboy OC) with superposition. i am running 2 monitor both at 1440p and 144hz.
i am planing on upgrading to a new GPU when AMD announces their new lineup. But this issue is making me lose confidence in AMD for my next Linux upgrade.
This issue does not occur on Windows 10. This also does not occur with a NVIDIA GPU. (I get other issues with nvidia but that's not relevant to this error)
My Distro is Manjaro KDE and this issue seems not to be distro specific since it occurs on Linux Mint Cinnamon.

direct render: YesNow the issue that is occurring is a lockup for my desktop, weirdly enough if im quick enough i cant get into a console with CTR+ALT+F2.
After some rainbow static graphics im met with a console, then after a minute or so both monitor go black and say no input.
my PC is still on and cannot recover until i do a hard reboot.
if i use corectrl to reduce the power limit of the GPU to 160 watts instead of 200 watts i can get through a superpostition run with no crash, but if i run a game for about 10 minutes i get a crash.
im not sure how to diagnose it since the logs ive found (Xorg.log.old, journalctl -b-1 -p err) doesnt show to much or isnt understandable to me.
i have attempted using a higher kernel 5.8 but issue is still there.
