No fix in the next drivers and these AMD cards are gone.

Nope. Release has been pushed back another 4 months while they investigate Geeman's issue!

I know right. I've never been so excited to get new drivers after these few months of desperation, and yet I know I'll be bitterly disappointed.

I can see it now

patch notes:
Resolved issues while playing Mirror's Edge in some configurations
enabled freesync support for R270 cards

known issues:
crossfire doesn't work with any new title

I wish they had drop down menus like NV, so I don't have to keep trying to add games\apps.
I installed skyrim and then tried to add it and then I was told it was already added!

You see, this is what I don't get. If there is stuff in these drivers that will keep people from switching to nvidia then amd should be telling everyone about it.
because once someone switches sides , you've usually lost them for a couple of years even if these drivers are magic

Ah!, I see you've played amd, nvidia before.

Just two days before the biggest AMD driver anti-climax in living memory, yes, I have an AMD card.

eyetrip · 17 Mar 2015 at 17:20

Fingers crossed they are worth the wait. Though not sure anything can make up for the delay in some peoples eyes.

If it's just freesync related changes.....
