Fallout 4 Crossfire

Start of the year was rough on the driver front sure, not been THAT bad since ~April though has it?

I'm guessing we won't have anything on release because there too busy with there work on Crimson but maybe we'll get something with that when it releases. They used the sorry but we've been very busy working on the optimised and 300 series drivers reason a lot this year and I guess now Crimson will be the reason. You're right though, They may be on the ball with it.
 
No crossfire profile. Seriously, unless one plays games 3-6 months after release, no point going multi gpu really it seems. By the time they get the profile out for fallout 4 in a months time, I will be mostly done with the game :(
 
I fell out of love with AMD because of crossfire. My 7950s were brilliant when they worked (like BF4) but on games with no profile or poor profile support, Arma3, DayZ and Far Cry 4 it just pushed me away. 25% of my core games supported just wasn't enough.
 
This does not make me feel like that about AMD as a whole, just their multi gpu side. Using single gpu things always work perfect, so not going to go single gpu to nvidia because of being annoyed with multi gpu with AMD. Only reason to do that would be if they offered a single gpu that was better price for performance vs amd, which is what they did with 980ti. Though I still find them to be over priced for what they are.

980ti and fury x should be priced around £400 at most in my opinion.

Seems SLI is not working with Fallout 4 either, I was under the impression that SLI was better supported than xfire, but that does not seem to be the case at all. Even Gregster said it was poor.

Going forward I just see myself getting 970/390 class gpu that is on 14nm. Then upgrade every year or two.
 
Been playing it tonight with my 7970s it runs okay on one but really suffers in dense areas :( to the point where just one card won't cut it, if they don't end up releasing appropriate drivers I may be forced to jump ship...
 
Guys there is a way to increase the performance on AMD Cards by disabling some of the NVIDIA gameworks cripplers

Volumetric Lighting set to 0 and God Rays set to 0

Fallout4.ini -> God Rays
Fallout4Prefs.ini -> volumetric lighting

Set your tesselation to 8x aswell in CCC

Has helped me!
 
Is anyone really surprised, with it being AMD.


Incoming 'AMD blames Nvidias GameWorks for their poor performance in Fallout 4' :p
