I'm seeking clarification on that Shanks. I know this adds support for up and coming FreeSync panels, think Asus and Samsung panels.

I have 15.4, no CF, any point in me having 15.4.1?

Looking like a Freesync driver.

To the best of my current knowledge, no.

Panos you've linked him to the older Beta version. I've corrected the link above now.

Thanks for the feedback.

We're going to be improving VSR support and the number of resolutions available, so tuned for that.

Matt,

Feedback part 2.

Un-installed the old 15.4 (Beta 9/4). Reboot the machine, and the resolution of the monitor on the desktop was set to 3200x1800.

Installed the drivers. Reboot the machine.

The system started again at 3200x1800. Lowered the resolution to 2560x1440.
All windows menus and gui (including CCC) remained at 3200x1800 but desktop was at 2560x1440.

Restart again, and now everything is on the correct resolution.

Took some screenshots if you want.

So not much point snagging these

Don't

Something doesn't feel right with TESO atm. Like the Freesync isn't working.

Going to make new profile to see if that is the case.

OK. Deleting the old profiles and making new for all the games was the solution.

Matt, I'm getting the same issues in Hardline as I was in GTA V on the 15.4's

Matson · 8 May 2015 at 19:23

I don't usually moan too much in this thread but seriously what's up with this....

With project cars I'm only using a single card at the moment and my second card is a paperweight as I have negative scaling in this game with it.
Is anyone else having the same? Just ran the same part and in crossfire my fps were 16/28/32. When running a single card in the same part I got 32/28/38.

This really just isn't good enough having a second 290 in my system doing nothing and in this case it actually makes the game run worse.
Its alright saying turn settings down but why should I...I bought two cards to runs these games on the highest settings or I mazewell have bought it for the ps4. At the moment im getting between 20-70 fps on a single card depending on the scenario but it would be a much more enjoyable experience if my second card was actually helping.

Are you cards overclocked at stock? Does the issue still occur if you underclock both cards by about 200Mhz on the core and memory?

Superpatsy · 8 May 2015 at 19:32

The only OC on them is the factory OC. I'll try downclocking them, again, in a minute.

LtMatt · 8 May 2015 at 19:34

Grab some screenshots of it happening in other games, if you can.

I've got a couple, do you want me to email them to you or just post up here?

Still the same for me whether I use the 32bit exe or the 64bit one. I wonder if its a certain setting causing it? Im running everything basically maxed out apart from the Grass and shadows.

Welcome to AMD crossfire 2015!

I have two parperweights most of the time

Flanos · 8 May 2015 at 21:01

I have a different experience, CrossFireX makes all the games I have installed run nicer. IDK how you guys manage to get these types of results. :|
