I already had crossfire disabled for MP.

Thought SP would be ok.

BF4 crashing fairly regular... sigh.

Maybe should read a book.

Does the crashing occur in Battlefield 4 with your whole system at stock speeds? I play that game a lot and have not experienced any crashing or stability issues on Mantle.

There was a new Winter patch released a week back, has the crashing started since then?

Oh yeah, everything is currently stock.

The new patch has made the game run wonderfully. Just crashes all the time.

I was getting Mantle crashes on the other BIOS on this 295x2.

Swapped to the original BIOS and I've been playing BF4 for hours at 1018/1650mhz -50mv +50% power.

God knows how the Sapphire BIOS were making it crash but they were!

Got a screenshot of the error? I can report it to Dice if it's Mantle related.

Don't worry, normal 295's will not have that bios.

There's no actual error message when the game crashes? Something like this below.

The generic Battlefield 4 has crashed message is not very useful.

eyetrip · 13 Mar 2015 at 16:30

Just the Windows BF4 has stopped working.

It's hard to say for sure, but there might be something else causing that then.

Who told you that?

I was sure I read it in this section

So with all this waiting will we get a brand new interface, epic pull down menus ect?

Maybe that's why I had barely any issues, barely played MP

Not Long now, 5 or 6 days.

May be irrelevant to drivers and such but would you happen to know why BF4 keeps freezing for me about 5 seconds into a loading cutscene?

Have you disabled the origin overlay?

Looks in driver thread for new driver..

Nah, the only (allegedly) concrete date that's been mentioned is the 19th.
It's probably not the best idea to set yourself up with unsubstantiated hopes for this or that feature, as you'll only have yourself to blame for the inevitable disappointment

When he knows full well when it's due

gpuerrilla · 13 Mar 2015 at 18:41

The problem with demanding a new driver is you want it to be stable not rushed. When it is released it had better be solid, no point in taking all this time and being flaky as hell!

..but a 15% improvement in games would go down rather nicely

shankly1985 · 13 Mar 2015 at 18:58

Latest battlefield 4 patch loads people been having crashing going by the forums.
