Hello. Everytime I tabbed out of games with vulkan renderer screen goes black for few seconds like its in fullscreen exclusive mode even with borderless selected. This only happens on games that has vulkan as renderer. This doesnt happen on my old amd gpu.

Hello Kkrm,


I've successfully reproduced the issue with Valheim using Vulkan, and I did not encounter any problems with tabbing in and out, nor did I experience any black screens or flickering. To troubleshoot this issue, please use Display Driver Uninstaller (DDU) to remove the current driver and then install the latest driver version 32.0.101.6632. If the issue persists, try using different cables. If changing the cables does not resolve the problem, you may need to report the issue to the game developer.

Have you set the game to run on vulkan using the steam launcher? well using direct x there is no issue on tabbing out. but when i run on vulkan its just the same with the updated graphic drivers. fps is high but just tabbing out seems to take few seconds. thats my issue. its not the same when using direct x. its like running in an exclusive fullscreen black for a like 1 second then displays the desktop. not just in valheim any game that i run on vulkan renderer is the same. i tried  other monitor and cable its the same.

Hello kkrm,


Thank you for your response. I have set the game to run using Vulkan. To ensure accuracy, I will conduct another series of tests. I hope to encounter the tabbing issue so I can investigate it further.

Hello kkrm,

 

I have completed testing the game using the Vulkan version, and the issue did not occur. You can view this YouTube video to see that no errors were received. Additionally, please ensure that your system has the latest drivers installed.
