The AMD Driver Thread

So im running Windows 10 now, as you do :D

Using drivers 15.7 im getting horrendous framerates in GTAV, anyone else come across this?

Everything else is running al-right 3DMark show shows scores consistent with Windows 8.1

I get really bad framerate with gta v on my 7990, I'm still on the insider build and if i turn the grass to the lowest setting and change Vsync to half it helps a bit.
 
GTA V ran lovely on my 7990, or it did around two months ago when i tested it extensively at 4K using very high settings. Has the performance been affected by recent patches?
 
TBH I've always found GTA V to stutter and perform terribly online but offline it has always played rather well. Got a problem with my card now where when I log onto windows I get a black screen on the desktop screen but rebooting fixes it, thought it was a driver issue so uninstalled and reinstalled them but still it happens although less frequently. Have had issues for the past 6-9 months with it black screening when monitor goes to sleep.

I can't RMA the card really either because it is second hand and changed the cooler, maybe if I need to I can talk to the seller. I've had the card myself for 15 months though.
 
I use 15.7 on both windows 8.1 and 10, win 8 is fine win 10 with exactly the same setting is unplayable, it was fine on the previous drivers though. I'm sure it will be fixed soon though.
 
The driver "update" via win10 actually rolled back to an older driver AFAIK.

lol, if it works! At the moment there are so many updates, i'm just leaving Win10 do its thing. Have no doubt I'll end up managing GPU drivers at some point!

My current Driver Version:15.200.1046.2

Old?
 
Nothing major, I'm getting decent performance at the moment, though there is definitely room for improvement driver wise. I had to disable quite a few graphics options to get a stable fps during combat etc.

NVIDIA have begun optimizing drivers for this popular game, so I was interested in AMD were following suit :)

its also still early access game - few I've talked with with 290s said they were getting 70s with everything high......I don't have it yet; friends keep pestering me.

I mean its not like I'm doing videos for Witcher 3; Victor Vran; Hex Beta; Pillars; ESO; TOR; Hearthstone; Ronin etc :D

hmmm......is it oc? if it is see if you roll back the oc and see if it still does it. If it does; most likely means you need a little more volts for the OC :)

Nah completely stock already thought of that. If I could stop it from going to 2D clocks and force constant voltage I think that might fix it because if seems to me that it hates downclocking. Have tried overclocking it but the core isn't very decent 1030mhz is the max it'll do really for 100% stability.

Hmmm.... weird - my 290 sitting at 1100; I know she'll do at least 1150; but have no need for that yet hehe.

what cable are you using and monitor? I know this sounds strange but some found depends on the cable and monitor the black screens. I've gotten it like twice; since I've gotten my 290.

have you tried trixx or afterburner to try and set your clocks? :D
 
So updated the driver through Windows update 9.14.10.01128

Everything runs fine not a single issue anywhere

Quite happy to say that's the best WindowsOS transition ever!
 
All running thr sdweatest ever on Windows 10 for me now, Dyling light running at really mental speeds, BF4 over 100fps.... titanfall still a little crap... but as I don't play the l;atest and greatest... would say the latest iteration are sweet on Win10.

I agree with dave there is certainly room for improvement driver wise for Ark survival! It runs quite well on 1440p for me around 50 - high 60 FPS on a 290x with a fair overclock. But sometimes i look at the game and think its running my GPU at 100% near enough all the time but only churning out this FPS? The game isnt that visually amazing! Should get more FPS than this. My 290x is running 1150 Mhz and 1500 Mhz on the memory.

Also i have to turn my OC down a notch when running 1080p for some reason because i get artifacts lol... Get that?! Room for improvement yep :) But i take it on the head as it's early access like you said!
