8.3 - Powerplay - Fixed ?

[msaunders]

Hi

Can anyone confirm if this has been fixed in the latest CAT's ? I am still seeing massive FPS drops in COD4 for example.

I know there is a fix in flashing the cards BIOS but I really dont want to go down this route and would prefer if ATI just sorted it in the drivers (if possible)

Anyone confirm this or have an opinion on it ?

Cheers

Rivatuner, monitor the card, load a game play for a while, exit the game look at the chart, if the GPU core speed is dropping down to 300Mhz in places then you have the powerplay issue.

Yeah , tried it , it is dropping in places ..........

Surely EVERYONE with a 3870x2 has this issue so ? Or is it only certain games perhaps causes it ?
