From reading the above posts I guess it is best to avoid Crimson for now. What is the latest non Crimson driver release for the R9 380?

Thanks

Why not just test the Crimson first? For me they been rock solid not a single issue.. Just because some people have issues on a forum does not mean its wide spread..

Worst comes to worst you can just remove them and install what LoadsMoney posted.

Crimson running like a dream for me as well, not a single problem. Best drivers I've seen in ages.

See this is the issue, like always, it's usually only people having problems that will post. That's completely understandable, but does lead to people thinking problems are more common than they are.

I must admit I'm still using CCC due to the reports of issues with Crimson.

think the version to use without crimson is 15.11.1, some use 15.6 as well

No problem with crimson on w10 either.

win10 64bit AMD 7950 no issues with crimson drivers on my system that I'm aware of.

Amd 7870 win 10,crimson drivers no problems at all.
Fallout 4 runs really good with these drivers.

295X2 with Win10, not had any issues with Crimson drivers either.

Yep, running absolutely perfect here on my 390X, at 1440P 144Hz Freesync settings

does anyone use the gaming evolved app built in to these drivers? what's it for and is it worth installing?

always left it out when installing drivers

I do, it provides suggested best settings for each game with your card. Also allows recording of gameplay etc. It's ok.

You're not wrong.

ademcg · 7 Jan 2016 at 16:33

ok, I am getting a frequent crash / error whilst playing Starwars Battlefront (origin)

I am running the latest driver set for Win7 64 bit (crimson I think) so I don't think there is a later set of drivers for my set up? a beta out there perhaps ?

Are you overclocking? This error is famous on frostbite from bad overclocking.
