AMD’s Radeon 7000 GPUs, including the RX 7900 series, can’t run the latest Sony port Ratchet and Clank with ray-tracing. The game straight-up crashes if you enable ray-tracing on a Radeon GPU. Fortunately, Team Red has acknowledged the issue and is working on a patch, but for the time being, Radeon gamers will have to stick to rasterization.
AMD’s graphics driver notes specifically mention Ratchet and Clank: Rift Apart. As per the change notes, crashes and driver timeouts may be observed while playing the game with ray-tracing and dynamic resolution scaling. Furthermore, AMD is working with the developers to resolve these stability issues when Ray-Tracing is enabled. The driver notes for the AMD Software: Adrenalin Edition are as follows:
Known Issues
- Performance Metrics Overlay may report N/A for FPS on various games.
