The AMD Driver Thread

Well, I may be small fry but I've jumped ship to single Gpu. Gone from cf 270's to a ROG 7970..... By the time I to can afford to cf it there may be a cf profile for Galaxian's and Pac-Man.

Yeah I agree... they really should go back to the way they used to do it, having CF profiles a separate download to drivers...

+1,2,3,4.... this should deffo be the way to go.

Quite frankly I don't care at moment about new drivers/profiles as I'm not using latest games like you guys (so I do feel your pain).

However @Matt, I see no reason as to why we can't jump back to seperate CF profiles that can be released AS SOON AS A GAME IS RELEASE surely? and just stick to the 4-6 weeks schedule for drivers... lets be honest... people will be happier, AMD turnaround would be quicker as I assume you have different dev's on the profiles and the drivers...

However, good luck guys...
 
First quick impressions are very good.. It really does smooth out the frame itch /stutter you get when frame rate drops..

Perfect test is to blow something up in Battlefield and close range and then move about really fast.. It remains smooth :D

More testing needed could only use it test range for couple mins..
 
Not sure if anyone has posted, but I'm reading this off the AMD forums, it appears the guy is using 5970's quadfire and crossfire.

Using the AMD Catalyst 15.3.1 Beta (leaked)

1. FAR CRY 4 ......... super smooth native crossfirex profile !!! I mean, no microstutter whatsoever. Game scaled pretty good on quadfire.

2. RYSE ............ very good native crossfirex profile. Tested on quadfire. Nuff said ...

3. EVOLVE ............. Native crossfirex profile that does not scale good on quadfire. Will test on 2 gpus only asap and post back.

Dragon Age Inquisition has now a native crossfirex profile, and it scales wonderfully !

As for Evolve, it doesn't seem to scale very well for me on 2 gpus, but i'd like to see what other users on 2gb + gpu cards are experiencing, cause i may be vram-bound.

I am guessing that the driver that AMD will post soon will be very similar to this, with a few last tweaks and 1 or 2 added crossfirex profiles.

It seems to be a very stable driver so far for me, with great performance on a host of games i've tried so far. Far Cry 4 is like day and night than before.

Give it a try. There is no harm to that.

Not sure what this guys setup is, but what the hell...

Ryse : won a cfx profile, but still does not work properly . Perhaps the WHQL ...

Alien Isolation : problem of black monitors resolved , apparently.

Lords of the fallen won crossfire profile. Worked properly , apparently.

MGSGZ : CFX no profile yet.

Dragon Age inquisition : apparently less stuttering .

Shadow of mordor : CFX is apparently more ... consistent. There are drops of frames, but less .

Dying Light: without support crossfire yet.

AC - Rogue : Crossfire seemingly perfect .

As a gamer that is extremely ceptable (probably the wrong word :S) to seeing very minor stutters this is wicked news for me, this was the whole reason i wanted Free Sync + a good graphics card

Yeah this was the first test for me.. So long as the frame rate dont drop to much then it should remain smooth..

Need to do more testing later..
