10.10 Catalyst Bad for BO

infernox · 13 Nov 2010 at 12:46

10.10 - Loading times took ages, serious frame drops

10.4 - Super fast load times, constant frames

Get 10.4 if you smart and you play Black Ops

I thought you were going to say the 10.10s made you smell, thread disappoints.

infernox · 13 Nov 2010 at 12:49

LOL i just re read the title xDDDd

i was using 10.4 and horrible lag spikes and frame rate drops, went to 10.10 and it improved :/

Just received my new HD 6870 this morning and been playing COD:Black Ops with the latest 10.10's and no problems at all.

Runs as smooth as silk.

So bad advice there it would seem.

I have 10.5 with 10.10 xfire profile and what ever I do it stays laggy though switching off xfire dramatically improved but still feels strange.

Maybe it depends on each users setup, strange.

Hopefully problems will be ironed out in next release.

Infernox, is your card overclocked at all?

Snakedoctor · 13 Nov 2010 at 13:34

10.10e runs it perfectly on my sysyem with MLAA enabled.

infernox · 13 Nov 2010 at 15:37

nope cards not overclocked at all, maybe it is for every persons setup.

i bought a 970 this morning thinking loading times it would improve didn't, so i tried video drivers and it worked .

so :|

Have you tried the 10.11 drivers? You can grab them off Windows update.

infernox · 13 Nov 2010 at 17:16

are they any good ? i dont want to go from bad - good - bad, waste of time then

Running 10.10 and Black Ops runs perfectly.

JamesU2005 · 13 Nov 2010 at 19:24

I had problems with all the latest ATI drivers apart from 10.5. UNTIL I removed Nvidia Physx Drivers that Mafia 2 had installed and also removed SpeedFan. Sounds odd I know but 10.10e now work perfectly!

Ditto - played Black Ops all the way through yesterday on a 6870 using 10.10 drivers at 1080p - not a single problem.

ashmanuk67 · 14 Nov 2010 at 08:45

CSA · 14 Nov 2010 at 09:42

Black ops does not like multi GPU full stop

There is no point in enabling muligpu in the the settings as it does not work.

What you need to do is have xfire/sli enabled but disable it in the config.cfg in your steam\steamapps\common\black ops\players

multigpu needs to be set to 0 and make sure the multicpu is set to 1

This work. The game will still use xfire/sli as the profiles are there in your drivers it just stops the game from confusing itself

You people are bonkers, this game should run a calculater. Its a poor game messing about with your PC's wont do anything to fix that

This is the end, my friend.
