The AMD Driver Thread

[shankly1985]

Seriously? So a new game gets performance bumps but yet again crossfire users have to wait? Not exactly doing a good job of selling multi gpu when its always a waiting game =/

May* try it first mate.

Edit
980ti these drivers won't work mate

One of many reasons I don't buy Cod anymore.. Poor pc development coding.. Only care about console.
I just wish cod4 would get remade that would bring me back lol

In b4 Elite Dangerous!

Elite Dangerous had the same issues on my 980Ti. It is also being reported on ED forums by plenty of Nvidia users.

The reason AMD haven't found a fix is because it's not AMDs fault

Read the anandtech article for more detailed information.

Shader Cache will reduce level loading times and provide smoother gameplay the second time and beyond you play a game/level, as the Shaders are compiled and then stored in a Cache on your hard drive and will be used next time you play. The difference is night and day for me in the Frostbite engine, which has never been favourable towards four GPU's, unless you were running under the Mantle API.

Ah, that sounds like a very good feature. Well done AMD. Can't wait for the Crimson drivers. Making me forget about Elite Dangerous

Call of Duty : Black Ops III ‐ Flickering may be observed when running the game in DirectX® 11 mode and with AMD

DirectX 11 mode? What other APIs does this support?

What causes flickering in crossfire as ever driver release has this "feature" introduced for new games

Vaguely how much hard drive space are we talking about?

Installed - but now my screen goes 'black' for a second or 2 every 2/3 minutes

What is going on?

(Am running 2 x 290 - not overclocked- on a Dell 34" 3440x1440 curved screen monitor, windows 7 64bit - AND it was good until I installed the new drivers!!!!)

Can't put youtube into full screen without Google Chrome crashing within a few seconds with this new driver.

 

[Begbie]

I thought it was my firefox, mines is doing the same. :/

 

[savagesam117]

The new drivers have made my spotify go nuts!

No issue here

No problem going youtube fullscreen in the latest Firefox here. Have you rebooted since installing? Oh, and I am using the HTML 5 video player.

Yup i have. I am also using the HTML5 player.

Used DDU so it was a clean install. Tried reinstalling again and it's still doing it.

What card do you have? Maybe it's just a certain model of card having the issue? Since Begbie is having the problem too.

I have 1% hope that this will fix my GTA.

 

[Drangueos]
