The AMD Driver Thread

[LtMatt]

This crossfire or is this to fix the ama bug on BenQ XL2730Z. Apart from that am not sure what needs fixing?

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

 

[LtMatt]

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

To the best of my current knowledge, no.

 

[LtMatt]

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

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

 

[LtMatt]

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

 

[LtMatt]

I am both amazed and quite frankly disappointed that Matt doesn't have the decency to even acknowledge any of the posts relating to Project Cars in this thread.

I expected some sort of response, even as outlined in my post, even if it was just that this was an unacceptable situation and he had escalated it to higher levels.

Well, it seems amd don't follow upcoming titles, and wait for their users to request/complain before even taking note of some titles, and then drag their feet.

Expect something late 2015.

But by then they will probably stop supporting existing cards and be focusing on their next gen.

Not gotten a single thing out of them performance wise or for games I have played since omegas came out.

We've had a Crossfire profile since Catalyst 14.2 for Project Cars.

As to why performance is now suddenly below par, I don't know. We're working with the devs now to find out why performance is not where it should be, this was not the case previously.

 

[LtMatt]

@AMDMatt These 15.4.1 looks like there aimed at fixing the AMA bug

No, a monitor firmware update will fix that issue shanks.

 

[LtMatt]

what are these doing then Matt out of interest?

They add FreeSync support and optimisations for new monitors, including the Asus IPS panel and the up and coming Samsung panels.

 

[LtMatt]

Any updates with my issue Matt?

What do you want me to do with the Hardline screenshots?

We're investigating the issue, you don' need to do anything else now. Thanks.

 

[LtMatt]

Is it looking like a driver issue?

I don't know.

What's the situation with the displayport link failure issue?

I've reported it and we're investigating.

Any help with this Matt?

Seems like I'm not the only one getting the tearing in hard line / GTA v

Cheers

That's exactly the problem I sometimes get with my 7970/280x Xfire in GTA5. Temps are fine etc. Seems intermittent though so I can't reproduce it

We're aware of that bug and are investigating, thanks.

 

[LtMatt]

Thanks for the reply.

Any ETA on a fix?

Kinda sucks a bit that we can't play properly at all due to glitchy drivers

We're still investigating the issue with Rockstar so no ETA yet I'm afraid.

 

[LtMatt]

What about the same issue with Hardline though?

+1

I get it on hard line and GTAV as well as other people that all seem to be using the 280x

Thanks guys, I've reported that as well.

 

[LtMatt]

What a silly question to ask, us AMD owners should know by now the answer to questions like this is......

"When it's ready"

The vendor rep has decided to play deaf and dumb when it comes to project cars!

#EpicFail

As i said on the previous page, we're working together with the dev to resolve the problems that have appeared since the final build of the game launched. In the beta build things were performing normally, but now that's not the case. I don't know why that is, or what has changed, but we're working on it.

 

[LtMatt]

Will add something to the OP.

 

[LtMatt]

Thanks for the reply.

What about the same issue with Hardline though?

Could either of you provide a save game file where the issue often occurs?

SuperPatsy, i know you had those hardline screenshots, could you drop them in a trust email to me please? Thanks.

 

[LtMatt]

I could give you a save for GTA V but not Hardline. It's not really a case of where it occurs, more when.

I could send the screenshots via the email conversation we had a couple of weeks ago?

That's fine, thanks.

 

[LtMatt]

I don't have a video for GTA v but watch this for hardline glitching out. Practically exactly the same on GTA v

https://vid.me/gmth

That's them sent Matt.

Thanks guys. A few questions.

Is this Mantle or DX11? Does this happen in 15.4? What about Omega?

 

[LtMatt]

DX11 on both. I've only tried GTA on 15.4's and Omega's. Hardline only on 15.4's.

Can you try Hardline Mantle to see if it occurs?

 

[LtMatt]

Any answer on the witcher 3 crossfire profile matt? Its the highest reviewed game this year its looking like so it would be very disappointing if crossfire isn't working for it.

Seems im being ignored when asking about the witcher 3 lol good job.

I didn't comment on the GTA V profile prior to it's launch and i won't be doing that with the Witcher 3 either. All i will say is we always try to have the best available Crossfire Optimisations in the biggest titles, ready for launch.

It doesn't appear to be doing it from the quick play of it there but the issue can happen instantly, after a while or if I'm really, really lucky, not at all.

Thanks, please let me know if you see it under Mantle. As you don't, I'd recommend using that for now in Hardline.

Just an update for Matt regarding GTA V tearing.

I had a day off today so managed to get a few hours in GTA V online with V-Sync enabled. The game ran great for 3 hours, no tearing. I then got dropped out of an online session and when I rejoined I got the tearing within about 10 minutes of gameplay. Temps remained all sub 70c.

Regarding mantle on Hardline, I tried it at a LAN and I still got the tearing.

I just managed to repro it on GTA V using my own 7990 and i captured video footage of it so I'll make sure we look at it.
