  • Blocky corruption may be observed in Detroit: Become Human on some Radeon RX 5000 series graphics products.
  • Using the Movies &TV application to edit video clips may result in green corruption in the clips.
  • Performance metrics may report incorrect values for current VRAM usage after an extended period of gameplay.
