I had HUGE screen tearing with the open source AMDGPU driver (not sure on DRI version, default?) but when I installed AMDGPU-PRO drivers it went away. This is at 4K, which seems to cause issues and I'm starting to think the driver somehow detects the wrong Hz settings for the screen at 4k (might do it manually sometime).
I'm using Ubuntu 16.04 MATE with the Compton composer, screen tearing is minimal but it can be noticeable at times so I will mess with that later on.
Anyone having crashing should considering forcing their cards into high&performance states, maybe even force the fan into 255 (max) setting just to eliminate overheating as a problem because my first 390x card (this is the 2nd one) had major issues if I didn't do that (its in videocard heaven now).
