Will these drivers affect the 5xxx series cards with crossfire? Im only getting 50-70% GPU usage in BF3, I'm hoping these drivers will fix this.
 
These drivers seem to have stopped the 'amd driver has stopped responding and has recovered' error I was getting.
Thumbs up just for that alone.
 
Anybody had any experience with the 69xx series? I'm still on the pre-release feb 17 drivers from way back when due to all the Skyrim glitches going on in recent drivers...

Really that would be frustrating to say the least.
I thought it might have been associated to the OC on my HD7950, but the error has not happened since the driver change.
I did also have the error sometimes at the BF3 loading page.
 
Did get running stable with these, but have been testing different drivers to find the best for OCing my 7950's in crossfire. I might settle on stock but wanted to see what could get in crossfire.

Max I have been able to achieve is 1050 on any drivers. Increasing voltage doesn't help. Each card seems to clock higher individually, so I guess must just be a crossfire thing.

Pity, as was hoping would be possible to get closer to 1200 - though would only run that in future.

Cards seem to run fine in crossfire at 1V at 1000 core, so I am either going with that or 0.993V at 900 core. Just seems silly running them at stock though :D

I had trouble with a few Steam games when I first got my 7950.

I read through the game forums for fixes and I'm sure the "-norestrictions" in launch options fixed a couple of them like GTA and LA Noir.

I had trouble with Alan Wake and another but can't recall their fixes sorry but I'm sure it was a launch option thing like above.
