**THE AMD DRIVERS THREAD**

[Doogles]

It does not happen with my 290 system but does happen with my 7770 system. Try disabling ULPS on Tahiti and see if it helps.

I still get it on my R9 290 and I have disabled ULPS, still the same

Works perfectly on my 290 system on 14.4 (and all drivers before that too) and Win8.1.

Ctrl+alt+delete worked to solve this problem for me, can anyone confirm if that does indeed solve their problem?

Here are my settings.

I drop down to ~30 fps on stonehaven.

terrain detail off...causes big hit

texture quality normal...just tried mine on high and got memory leak problem after 1 game using 8gb of ram lol

water low

aa 2xmsaa

shadows off


try that then increase as needed and see what hit on fps it gives...terrain detail was like 20fps for me and barely any diff in visuals....plus u want performance not pretty when online

oh and aspect ratio as per monitor not left at auto

Have you tested gpu with something like occt to check that its running ok?

you have better card than my two but thats the settings i use at 2550x1450 and get constant 90fps expect when looking down scopes due to the double rendering thing....drops to about 50ish then.

Also check settings in amd panel that they are set to performance rather than quality.

Hope that helps

 

[thefogo]

Thanks I'll give those settings a go
Yeah my gpu works fine in everything else.

Works for few seconds then i get a black screen with my 290, happens a lot with youtube aswell.

 

[shankly1985]

No black screens here, Have you guys tried another PCI-E power cable?

a GPU shutting off or Black screening could very well be something else.

Anyone knows when the 14.13/14 WHQL is going live? I'm still on 13.12 and would like to update haha.

This Month, it could be tomorrow evening our time.

 

[MrMarvelous]

Cool, thanks hum.

 

[malachi]

Hope they fix the 290 xfire issues. Soon as I enabled it I get low fps in all games. DX 11 performs better than Mantle in BF4 and soon I enable xfire it gets worse.

Thanks, I will give 14.3 a try as it was 14.2 I had this issue. I wait till I get another 290 in a few weeks.

14.2 had issue with mantle, not sure about directx. 14.3 fixed this.

Edit
Great stuff matt get this install tomorrow.

 

[LtMatt]

New Mantle version in these drivers along with OpenGL 4.4 I think Dice still need to patch the Mantle frame pacing though for some.

 

[Minstadave]

Nice, on the way!

 

[LtMatt]

These are 14.4 Beta, but they're going to become WHQL soon i believe. Definitely much newer driver than the 14.4 leaked press drivers.
