make sure you set the profile to the Tesv.exe not the Skyrimlauncher.exe. Using the Tweaks tab in Radeonpro tick the option to use "lock framerate to monitors refresh rate", or set a dynamic FPS lock of 60 (or lower if need be). I just did this myself and the game runs smooth for me. If you are still stuck I can upload some screenshots of my settings.

Good luck.

This is the first issue I ran into when I went from GTX580 to 7970, I ended up just plugging the GTX580 back in to play Skyrim as it was much smoother. :p

I had to do the same kind of thing when I went from HD 7970 to GTX 680 in Witcher 2. Horrendous stutter and lower FPS as well, the 7970 ran it perfectly. The only way to get it working with the GTX 680 was to force an FPS cap around 10% lower than the average FPS. After all the messing about with FPS caps and such crap it was about 25% slower than a HD 7970. It was a TWIMTBP title as well :)

Well whaddya know, it seems there are problem games no matter what GPU vendor you go with. Anyone who implies Nvidia is hassle free is wrong, the same goes for AMD/ATI. There are always going to be issues that we can help each other with. Or you can choose the idiotic troll approach and attempt to gloat over someone else's problems, while deluding yourself your particular choice of vendor is perfect.

Not to sound gay but LOVE YOU!!!

Fixed, nowonder i couldnt work it i had wrong radeonpro version :\

THANK YOU! Skyrim totally stutter free! Was really annoying me this stupid stutter, i dunno how hard it would be for AMD to implement this into a driver?

Is there anyway i could contact them with this info? Or will they treat me like not and flick me away?

I'm interested in testing this out myself, but is this doing anything that Afterburner can't do with its own FPS lock?

Probably not, but Radeonpro allows many other tweaks that the CCC cannot allow. It is the AMD/ATI equivalent of Nvidiainspector.

Lol, you would not be the first person to tell AMD to hire this guy. I think he is already working with AMD, not for them. so his work is AMD approved.

I'm delighted you got it sorted, nothing worse than your FPS meter lying to you when you can see stutter.
 
@weehamish, glad you got it sorted, you mentioned Nvidia never had this problem, maybe so, but they have their own problems too.

Remember it's also a BETA driver your using, not the official 12.8's, that's why they are called betas-they may have problems.

You can fill out the beta feedback/problem form if you want to contact AMD:
