All well and good but that does not help existing applications/games that are currently using OpenGL.

Mind me asking what openGL games you playing?

I know AMD's OpenGL is not good but is it really all that bad?
I don't play many OpenGL games but the few that i do like Team Fortress 2 play very well with maximum IQ and AA settings as long as i use AMD's Proprietary Drivers and not the crap that Ubuntu installs.
Not what I'm looking for, looking to find some numbers of who in here has FreeSync running CrossFire right now who are waiting on driver support, not interested in the pitchfork crowd, they can do as they please.
Do you have a Freesync monitor Tommybhoy?

Just add it to the list that AMD won't give a crap about
(inc driver/crossfire support!!!!)

Why wouldn't they? It's built upon something they already know very well..
Yes
Go try dying light/metro redux then see how well it runs. then compare that to the equivalent NV card
And lets face it, Team Fortress 2 is hardly a taxing game + the fact that the source based games run well anyway.
Update For AMD Freesync & Crossfire Support
AMD fans have been outspoken about their love for the smooth gameplay of AMD FreeSync™ technology, and have understandably been excited about the prospect of using compatible monitors with the incredible performance of an AMD CrossFire™ configuration.
After vigorous QA testing, however, it’s now clear to us that support for AMD FreeSync™ monitors on a multi-GPU system is not quite ready for release.
As it is our ultimate goal to give AMD customers an ideal experience when using our products, we must announce a delay of the AMD Catalyst™ driver that would offer this support. We will continue to develop and test this solution in accordance with our stringent quality standards, and we will provide another update when it is ready for release

Very frustrating to say the least, considering how long us crossfire users have been unable to use the Freesync features of our monitors.

Well at least the delay was on time, by 2 hours 25 minutes

Metro redux runs pretty well on AMD looking at this. No maxwell cards but gtx780ti is included.

Here is dying Light and again the performance is strong.

Nvidia do have a history of being better on Open Gl but AMD are far from being bad.
Better to have it working than screw everything up.

Another driver delay? Well I never.
Soldato
Another AMD fail. I can't trust this company any more, they're going down the pan very fast.

Cheers for the update Matt, information is always better than none, even if it's not the info we wanted to hear. Keep up the communication.
Damn.
I was only waiting for more drivers for elite crossfire profile.
Why can't they just release this as a hotfix or something?
