It turned out to be more stable than I expected.

    rx 6650 xt, stock drivers that come with arch, amdgpu. issue is both on lts and latest. seems to be a ring buffer error. there’s an open ticket about it.

    I don’t remeber the flag, but it’s to disable some power saving feature.

      That sounds more like something weird about the card itself than with the driver; “power saving feature” makes me think a faulty hardware ACPI implementation by the card vendor is to blame. I’ve had a similar thing happen with my Wi-Fi modem where it would completely crash and only a reboot would fix it; I too have to do special kernel options to get it working.

          Weird. Guess it’s a crazy fluke.
