Crash on Viewing Battles

I am experiencing crashes when viewing battles while zoomed in enough for the ships and weapon effects to render.

I too have an AMD R9 200 series and experience crashes when viewing ship battles. The crash ranges from a CTD with no error logs to a full system crash requiring a reboot. All instances have the display driver 'amdkmdag' stop responding and the system crashes are when it does not successfully ...
