Not really good advice, I had major problems with the 12.9 beta drivers with my 7870 and a quick google search shows other having problems with them as well.

Yes, sorry my mistake.

Best way to un-install the old driver is via my computer - add/remove program.

Obviously it doesn't affect everyone but I would never recommend installing beta drivers, well not to fix this issue anyway as sleeping dogs ran perfectly fine for most 12.8 users.

I can't stop recommending working drivers just because you had an issue with them. :)

have you tried it yet Hitman? any better with x.m.p enabled for your memory? did you re install direct x and any runtimes that come with the game?

It's not just because I had an issue. Recommending beta's (which in fact in the release notes state nothing about sleeping dogs) is a bad idea when he's using the latest official stable drivers.

I think the cause of this issue is deeper than drivers.

Probably but im my experience the best way to troubleshoot is through the process of elimination and you should always start with the most common problem, drivers.

You may well be right but it sounds like a power/heat issue to me.

If its stock he shouldn't be exceeding the power limit though surely?

Then again he is running extreme on sleeping dogs. :D

I've seen similar issues with certain games wanting to draw more power. If it is the case it's rather ridiculous from AMD.
 
It does it on high settings aswell only works on medium high worked when it wasant on full screen
