The AMD Driver Thread

Is there any reason why I cant get into the crimson settings? Normally I just right click on the desktop and its at the top but its completely vanished.
 
Hmmm weird. Even though I installed drivers on the 15th of May and the AMD uninstaller was in my program list when I clicked it it came up with there is nothing to uninstall and removed itself.

How can drivers magically uninstall off your system? Windows 10 doing silly things I'm guessing.

Anyways installed the newest version but having a second issue unless they have changed things...

Cant find the crossfire option in the advanced settings.

Went back to the last driver and the crossfire settings are still missing.

Even though you can clearly see here the card is recognized.

Did they not move this to Global Settings in Radeon Settings recently? Sorry I haven't got 2 cards to check myself.
 
Hi, My Global frame rate target control keeps turning off, Is anyone else having or had this problem and if so how is it fixed please? I always keep the drivers updated. I haven't touched any individual game settings only this global setting to keep fps under 100 but its always turned back off whenever I check it. It's a 60 hz panel.

Yeah myself and someone else had this a few pages back when I asked - it's when you update your drivers it moves the checkbox for FRTC from on to off, so if you're updating your drivers often that might explain it?

Note: Changes to the Frame rate target must be done outside of the game, i.e. exit the game completely, make your changes, and then start the game again.

The current implementation of Frame Rate Target Control works with DirectX® 9, DirectX® 10 and DirectX® 11 titles, and offers targets in the range of 30 to 200 fps.

Available on the following products: AMD Radeon™ R9 Fury X GPU, AMD Radeon™ R9 300 Series, AMD Radeon™ R7 300 Series, and AMD Radeon™ R7 260 and above GPUs

what game is it ? because i saw a review last year they were saying that it doesnt work on battle.net with diablo,hots,etc, dont know if they fixed it, if you are playing overwatch it might be that.
