12.3
12.4
Must be a trifire issue, my 2GPU score is up, but 3GPU score is way down.
it's to do with test one, which has very low GPU usage, 50 to 60%
the rest of the tests are much faster.
Ive seen the same problem with the lastest beta too.

Well I let my monitor sleep and on awake everything works!
the low GPU usage doesn't seem present on the extreme pre set.
10004 this is at my everyday clocks.

What a suprise, 6900 series trifire eyefinity in bf3 still having turd like scaling, around 55-60% per gpu. Back to 11.12 again it seems. 
Crysis 2 is around 40% per gpu, still scales like ass over a year later.
*sigh*

12.3 where very good for BF3. These dont feel as smooth.
+1. Feels like there's micro stutter a lot more than the beta's. Must try 12.5 next
I have a question, i had the old CCC but it lagged a lot on startup so i uninstalled it and just kept just the drivers. If i want to install the 12.4 what do i do? Simply download it and just install or have to uninstall all the old CCC drivers etc
As Locky said higher up in this post that the start up does not lag anymore has anyone else noticed this?

You should be fine just installing over the top of the old drivers but if that goes wrong I use a little programme called atiman unistaller that removes all the old drivers and reg keys etc and allows you to do a fresh install with the new ones.
These drivers don't have the CCC.exe lag like older versions and load up straight away on windows startup. I am finding these the best drivers so far for my me

Ok thanks
Hi fellow Dave
Only difference between these and the 8.97, is the driver is 8.961, there is no delay in the CCC process like previous drivers. Played a few rounds of BF3 and it's as smooth as the 8.97's. Will stick with these for now, they're keepers

Driver is older than 8.97 though.
