HIS HD 7950 IceQ BOOST Arrived Today!

[ExperimentalHDX]

I have a quick question, when I boot up my PC after installing the GPU, should I:

1. Install the drivers that came with the card in the form of a disc, then update them to the 13.11 beta I downloaded?

-or-

2. Forget the disc and just install the beta driver I downloaded?

Thanks in advance!

Forget the disc

Forget the disc

Roger, thank you!

you might want to flash it first (LTmatt has a great guide)http://forums.overclockers.co.uk/showthread.php?t=18539905, do this while you have no driver installed and no overclocking programs.

If your not fussed about flashing it, then just go get the betas from AMD like Uncle said.

Yeah, I'm not too fussed about flashing it, not yet anyway. Thanks for the response

You should definitely read the OP of this thread below. Either do it now or you'll come back and do it soon enough anyway.

I've pretty much memorised that thread
Been reading through it before I even ordered my GPU

Good lad. May the force be with you.

Then flash it before you install them.

SNIP

Then flash it before you install them.

Haha.

The man from Del Monte says YES to the 13.11 beta drivers.

Already downloaded these in readiness for tomorrow.

Oh man I'm happy with my purchase, it rips up GTA IV on high settings (soon to be graphically modded) and the BF4 beta runs silky smooth well over 60fps on ultra (shadows off). I'll be getting tomb raider again and I'll put Far Cry 3 to the test tomorrow. I want another one!
