omega drivers
you just check the box in CCC
you then get extra res options in most games
its pretty seamless when ive tried it

dont ask me where the box is tho its hidden in there somewhere lol

Thanks for getting back to me, I'm new to AMD cards my drivers are up to date 14.12 Catalyst Drivers.

Will it be a case of google search the Omega one's if so do you have the version number of those.

Will I need to remove the Cata drivers then install Omega, or just install over the top?

Sorry for the noobie questions

14.12 are the Omega drivers.

Gilbert89 · 4 Mar 2015 at 16:11

All Done

Thanks again

Dyling Light looks fantastic at 1440p even on my 1080p monitor.

Not a huge FPS drop perhaps 10 fps lower in busy places but in with the nature of the game 40-50 fps in combat is smooth in my eyes.

wow thats a trial by fire for sure
its pretty sweet on a bigger screen with less demanding games
playing dont starve on a 40inch screen, some LoL, some HOTS
pretty nice!

They will be out when they are ready

Joking aside, near 3 months now is a long wait

The AMD driver page has been rearranged for me here http://support.amd.com/en-us/download/desktop?os=Windows 7 - 64#amd-catalyst-packages

Beta driver was below the Omega link not long ago..

Hmm

griffy · 4 Mar 2015 at 18:42

So disappointing waiting so long. Why the hell did I switch?

This is not the norm. Amd usually realease a driver nearly every month. These drivers are said to have new features so hopefully they will be worth the wait.

They'll probably launch the driver Friday to coincide with their conference or something stupid.
