For the Atlas doc page: https://docs.atlasos.net/getting-started/post-installation/drivers/amd/#configure-radeon-software

I'd suggest adding to the AMD section instructions on how to install the AMD Chipset drivers cleanly, since AMD's path for this is unclear for many people (e.g: you can accidentally reinstall the full display drivers when trying to install the chipset, and I've seen many PCs with incomplete Chipset driver installs which badly affects PCIe and other performance).

I'm happy to write this section of wanted. Happy to take others' experience also.

Stemming it out:

  1. Install the debloated/minimal Radeon drivers per existing AtlasOS AMD instructions
  2. Install the AMD chipset drivers for your CPU
  3. Run the AMD minimal install, which is actually their driver auto install tool. This will detect missing drivers.
  4. SKIP the first two options I'm the minimal install tool [don't reinstall Radeon and the next option. show screenshots to help people]
  5. (I.e. only install the page pictured below)
