Some content and heavy applications cause GPU panics (hangs) or artefacts

Seems to be causing GPU page faults. Related dmesg attached below
dmesg-1676548999.txt
Issue severity has been reduced. Only some videos cause this now
Seems to be related to VRAM size. Increasing VRAM on my laptop from 512MB to 1GB resolves it. Maybe because macOS thinks it's a dGPU, it's not optimising how much VRAM it can use. Requires more research
Now I use the latest driver file, also encountered the same situation, but it won't crash, the picture card by card, the whole picture stuck for a while, not moving, after a while can be used
todesk application cannot be used. is crash
Very descriptive
Playing a YouTube video Firefox causes hangup of the whole system and does not recover from this state. I am using macOS Monterey. In chrome and chrome based browsers, first few minutes when you use the search bar, the whole browser window turns pinkish and recovers after a while, and becomes smooth after a few of such hangup. I could play in 4k using chromium based browsers.
@hoppingninja666 It’s weird, some systems have problems with Chrome, some with Firefox, some not at all. Pretty weird
macOS wasn't brave enough to handle it
I have not forgotten about the issues; you don't need to create bumps.
I can walk with Brave Browser but lag when opened I try to wait for it to be opened
First... Sorry for my bad english.
But. If you need Chrome like I do... This is what I did:
- Install Chrome (duhh);
- Open Terminal and paste "/Applications/Google\ Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google\ Chrome --args --disable-gpu" (without quotes);
- Go to Chrome's settings and look for something like "Use hardware acceleration" and disable this option;
- restart the browser.
I've done that and still haven't had any issues.

The problem is that opening Chrome already caused the crash. I just got it the way I posted above.
I didn't even have time to enter chrome://flags.
@joederpoliveira Sorry, I just meant that I already have this as an entry

No problem. It turns out that my post can help someone who is not able to get into Chrome to disable the flag. That's why I decided to post it here. I think it should work on other Chromium based browsers.

love you
On Ventura I got this issue when I open the App Store
5600H CPU opens an application or a page of the operating system will get stuck, and the system will respond later. The latest version of the driver, MAC OS is ventura.
Thanks, very useful
I am working on a potential fix. I think what I'm implementing will completely fix this and #137. No promises though.
