**THE AMD DRIVERS THREAD**

I use DDU every time I switch drivers. It's not the uninstall process that's problematic, it's the install that's causing issues I believe. The original Mantle driver was delayed due to installation problems from what I recall. I don't think they completely fixed any issues they were facing as both drivers have had the inconsistency with each install.
 
just got BF4 and titanfall (downloading as i type) is it worth getting the 14.2 drivers or should i stick with 13.12?

running on i5 3750k and xfire7950's
 
Something really strange is happening.

Over the past week or so i have been inching up the BF4 settings in Mantle and then playing for a few hours to try and find the highest settings possible for my miserable 2GB of vRam.

I'm now running everything on High and low post AA, including the two dreaded texture settings which on anything over medium usually cause the Memory to run away with its self ending in stuttering.

This time; not only is it stutter free but i have seen my vRam hit 2.2GB (on a 2GB card,) this according to the BF4 Mantle overlay, and it just soldiers on, seemingly quite happy.

So, i'm going to continue to inch those settings up, next its from SSAO to HBAO.
 
It's funny you mentioned that mate, i'm running the game Full Ultra without a hitch, 90 FOV, 100% motion blur and HBAO and 125% res scale + 2 X AA..

I don't recall installing a patch.

I have a 4890 as i'm poor as hell and can't afford a new pc atm lol but, when i play BF4 i get a error about my drivers being outdated, the game still runs perfectly fine but its just annoying as due to this(i'm assuming) when the game loads i have to close Chrome then click the game at the bottom for it to come up, whereas my friends just loads up with his web browser still open.

Now, I've also ran Titanfall on this card and i don't get a single error and the game runs perfectly fine, don't get me wrong my FPS on these games is around 30-40, i find it still perfectly playable.

Due to these drivers giving me problems it kinda lowers my FPS by around 10FPS, i used to have a Geforce 9600GT which ran it better, i would go back to it but all of my other games run better with the Radeon its jsut BF4 and Titanfall that suffer.

The last legacy driver for your card was 13.9 WHQL dated 10/15/2013. If you're not already, start using that driver. However AMD should be releasing a new WHQL driver around the start of April. That will likely be a legacy driver as well as they normally update legacy drivers (i think) every 6 months. Keep an eye out for the next WHQL driver in a few weeks time.

Catalyst Control Centre has been interfering with my power control options since 13.11, it resets it back to 0 randomly. the solution for me was to unistall it, you don't need it anyway.
