The AMD Driver Thread

Custom resolution not the same as DSR, and AMD don't have it.

Need to use a third party tool like custom resolution utility, but that not as nice as Nvidias implementation which make sit very easy to test overclocking a monitor.

AMD have VSR, But atm 7000 series dont support this without modded driver! This is coming in a future driver
 
Playing half life and the core is set at 500Mhz with little to no GPU usage. Micro stutter is bad. I can't see how it can be the clocks fluctuating when it does not move from 500mhz.

This is why I have stuck with Nvidia the past few years, plug and play no hassles.

Whats it like without vsync?
 
Fine with no Vsync, but I don't need 300 FPS for half life or any other game that uses between 20-30% GPU. I want smooth vsync something that just works with Nvidia even at low power clocks.

Don't think disabling the boost is going to counter that, don't have a clue what it is.

No hassles on either vendor for me plug and play-only noticed the boost fluctuation in B/M's causing lower scores.

Clock dropping fix.

1. Download RadeoPro - http://www.radeonpro.info/2013/11/new-build-with-support-for-amd-radeon-r-series/

2. Create a profile using the game exe.

3. Click the profile tab, then the overdrive tab. Click the padlock to unlock overdrive, click enable graphics overdrive, then click 'always use highest performance clocks while gaming'. Don't forget to set +50% power tune in RP. Now right click the game profile shortcut on the left and select apply then launch the game.

Had no choice did he, not after someone else done it, AMD got owned! :p

Bet it wen't something like this at AMD.

'Look, some ***** done VSR for the 7 series, ****!, we'll have to do it for the ******* now! :mad: :mad: :mad:

:D

Lol most likely. The guys who hacked the drivers actually say that the code was already in the drivers, they only switched it on with their VSR tool. I guess AMD wanted the feature for the R9 cards to make it a selling point.:mad:

Then if it works fine without vsync, sadly you getting the annoying vsync stutter. Not much you can do other than forcing different vsync or limit frame rate.

It's this reason we now have new technology to get away from this..
 
New tech? what you on about, what new tech is in the R9 card that prevents stutter with vsync. How come Nvidia have it sorted on cards going back to the 580.

@ matt, now have max clocks but game still stutters.

Strange, Half Life/Half Life 2? I have it and can try it on my 285, will let you know what i find.

Freesync, Gsync these are the only way to remove vsync stutter.
I don't know, I don't use vsync.. Don't like it
Like I said you don't get it without vsync, but you do once you enable it..

What does that tell you?
