Tomb Raider frame time has improved, i know for a fact as i can notice a difference in the benchmark. Not that it was bad before, but there was a little part near the start of the bench that had a tiny bit stutter. That's now gone completely.

Same here.. use to get a small stutter in the beginning of the bench but its completely gone now with average fps of 85 and mins of 67 @ 1080p Ultimate preset. thats pretty darn good!

These definitely seem the fastest, stable, frame pacing enabled drivers so far.

The metro games are horribly optimized. I appear to be rather heavily cpu bottlenecked in those titles.

What do you mean by "metro games are horribly optimised"? You seem to be getting 17% improvement with overclocking in both titles, which is pretty much on par with other games in your benchmarks round up.

If they were CPU-limited, you'd be getting little to no performance gain by overclocking the GPUs.

Gpu usage drops heavily during certain parts of the benchmarks.

matt - is tomb raider bench quicker using these drivers than beta2?

Performance seems identical to 13.8 for me Besty. However the frame time variance is smoother than it was during the 13.8 official website reviews.
 
Negatory been playing a bit of sleeping dogs and hitman on steam as of late. What problem are you having?

I for one live in hope that one day TressFX can perform full flowing animated nipple tassels on Lara. ;)

Your mind's an unusual place ;)

I turned off TressFX based on the game's benchmark (haven't even played it yet), thought it looked a bit naff.

Its a nice touch and it looks cool, but in reality it adds very little. I always use it though.
 
Steam games started crashing...so I'll try to do a clean and re-install too see if that helps.

EDIT:
Yeah, get black screen when loading up some games / and others crashing.

Thought it was my overclock at first but same problems when scaling back on the clocks.

Also have the 7990...
