Can confirm on 14.11.2 ULPS is on buy default.. I always disable this anyway, but I have reported it for those that like to have this on.

Odd, it wasn't working on mine last night when I installed these (second GPU merrily awake at idle when it should have been asleep). Maybe I'll try an uninstall/DDU/reinstall tonight.

Cheers for the feedback Shankly.

Ops sorry I mean its disabled lol

ULPS should be enabled upon new driver install, on 14.11.2 its disabled. I didn't need to use Afterburner to disable it.

any news on that DICE fix for mantle in BF4 Matt? Can't see it in the latest patch notes. Kinda annoying as i bought my 290 specifically for BF4 and Mantle, after my 7970s weren't properly supported...

I bought my 7990 for BF4 and Mantle, still waiting.

Matt, I want some kind of 4k 60hz HDMI support for my 290s. If they can't be updated to HDMI 2.0 I'd take the nVidia keplar style 4:2:0 bodge over no support at all.

I know it's not a common request round here, but I really really really want it

Any chance of that happening?

May I ask what problem you are having? (Not gone through entire thread)

I have a 290 also and found BF4 runs fine, to the point that my upgrade from a 1090t to 4790k seemed a waist tbh

Run mine @1440p on ultra, Stock clocks.

Just had my first BSOD for months when installing the latest driver. Anyone else got that?

bloodkil · 19 Nov 2014 at 19:53

Not had any problems thus far, i'll keep playing around and report back

Choimaloy75 · 19 Nov 2014 at 20:25

In the CCC I don't get the extra crossfire options ie afr friendly etc when I knock frame pacing off, where have these gone to.

Choimaloy75 · 19 Nov 2014 at 20:33

It's ok I found it now.

MrMarvelous · 19 Nov 2014 at 21:10

What's the newest and most stable AMD driver out guys? Think i'm still on 14.4 and it's about time I updated, got a MSi 290 if that helps.

gpuerrilla · 19 Nov 2014 at 22:28

I got the 14.9 WHQL but not got round to installing it yet..

X3T · 19 Nov 2014 at 23:31

Hi Matt, any updates on the Swift 144Hz issue?

flopper · 20 Nov 2014 at 02:52

dragon age inq running great on latest beta for me.
5040x1050 and can run it with a single 290 without issues.

Does anyone has problems again switching between eyefinity and "classic" extend desktop through Win Key + P? Once I activate Eyefinity on the Duplicate option, it does nothing no matter what I press. If Eyefinity is disabled, then it works fine to go from extended to 2 monitors duplicate and 1 off.

Try uninstall by control panel, don't restart, run DDU and restart into safe mode when it ask. Select amd and recommended setting, run it and restart again. Now try installing new drivers.

Tried this, the install goes fine as usual but then after restarting I just get a black screen

I'm still stuck on 14.4 and I'm missing all these performance boosts

I'm having major issues with eyefinity with this and previous driver, it's doing about 17fps in eyefinity on BF4 on medium settings, it was fine until I enabled eyefinity, now when I go back to a single monitor it's still low fps.

Ok got to test the new 14.11.2 BETA drivers today,

Crossfire hard crashes and game issues have now gone that I was experiencing from the 14.8-9 drivers. All runs 100% perfect again

Nice added bonus was a stock clocks 3dm firestrike run gave me 9933, up from the 9738 on the older drivers I had been using. Tempted to ram all the max clocks on again and try and improve my current record

Thanks AMD, cracking work, once again massively happy I stuck with my Radeon cards

Have a look to see what both of your cards are doing when you play. I am having an issue where my second card gets stuck in boost clocks, it too seems to degrade my performance quite a bit.

Pooh interesting one, might have to look into that, wonder if that's what afterburner is doing to me too in benches as there is a "boost edition" button I think I checked earlier to see what it did

evohicks · 22 Nov 2014 at 20:00

My cards are Stock with ulps off, settings in AB are ok for both cards, I had this issue with the last driver.
