I'm glad I dumped my 290X trifire setup when I did. It appears crossfire support really hasn't improved at all. I think the suggestion about going back to separate cap profiles is a good suggestion as this surely can't continue for multi - gpu users

We multi-gpu users are the ones getting shafted. Poor Crossfire support.

+1 to bringing back separate CAP profiles.

TonyTurbo78 · 20 Mar 2015 at 15:12

not a great way to encourage already AMD GPU users to go and buy another card of theirs is it, by not providing driver to support multi gpus....but you gotta wait a 1/4 of a year to get it

I'm a crossfire user (290) AND am waiting for that elusive PLP eyefinity setting!

Chop chop AMD.

Where is the Far Cry 4 profile? Dying Light? Elite: Dangerous?

How about VSR for the 280/280X which was also promised?

What about the HD 7000 series users who were told at the last minute they weren't getting VSR?

When did they promise VSR for R9 280x ?

On a more serious note I've enjoyed the freesync

AMD are getting pretty hard to defend for anyone at the minute.

You're enjoying this far too much greg even though it's actually affecting you...

Haha, normally I would agree but I intend on doing a professional style review and comparison and it would be better if it was done on the latest drivers. I have up til 2pm on Monday to squeeze that in, as I have promised my work mate he can have it by then and I will be rocking a 7950 from his build that I built him a couple of years back until the TX arrives from your good selves (don't you dare mess with my order

).

There are board and bios level differences between the 7xxx series and the 280/280X series. The R9 280/280X should get VSR support in the future, the 7xxx series will not.

Quite a while ago.

I haven't really read up on this much but how does SLI compare to crossfire when it comes to working correcting and bringing out profiles quickly? I have no loyalty to either company and iv been using crossfire for years but when I end up using a single card in most new games it makes me wonder what the point of having two cards actually is when older games run perfect on a single card.

Doesn't seem like a promise to me, Matt has just said he thinks they should get it, not that they will.
