At present it's a little gimmicky until they improve it for the latest mainstream games like skyrim and BF3. There's also the question of it's real performance benefit as opposed to just fps numbers on the screen.

If I can get 300 fps exactly the same as I do now for some games on my 120Hz monitor without tearing but everything else being equal it will be of benefit.

Also if I can get an FPS boost in high performance games where I may only get 45 fps at present and see that boosted to 60 fps without any degradation of graphics quality, response times or smoothness and infact see an improvement in the latter two then it will also be of benefit.

These are the two things it claims to do and if it can do either of them without any negatives it will be an excellent peice of software, if not or they can't progress it's performance in all the games it fails to enhance in these two ways it will be useless ****.
 
I've read a more in-depth explanation of it. When it's running you can't count FPS at all, any attempt to count FPS will not succeed and just gives a fake high number... However the review seemed to be saying it was only going to be of benefit if your FPS was going to exceed what your monitor could handle, and it would increase responsiveness.

What you're talking about Phil is their Hydra technology, which tries to tie anything up together into a sli/xfire type thing. I've not seen it mentioned so I don't know if it's been quietly retired or if it's just not present on the 7 boards.
 
It occasionally causes my games/benchmarks to fail to start with a memory issue forcing me to restart. Now disabled :(
 
have tryed it a few times and total fail tbh, bf3 get about 20play then it crashes saying ran out of memory so have disabled it and wont use it again,
