**THE AMD DRIVERS THREAD**

Quick question regarding CCC.

I play CS:GO with 200 contrast. I would like to create a profile which changes automatically plays csgo at 200 contrast. I tried it out but couldn't find anything. I can change the graphics settings but I don't want to.
 
Here's a weird one.

Omega Drivers, 295x2 - Crossfire disabled for games with no profile

Far Cry 4 - I've only just started playing it so I don't know if this affects all the drivers, but I run it at 3840x2160/Ultra/SMAA/V-sync off.

Game runs at between 32-40 fps

However, with MSI Afterburner on, I noticed that the GPU wasn't being 100% maxed out at all times and because of this the card was at around 900-950Mhz not the 1018Mhz max clock speed it would normally be at.

I noticed it during the first 'ingame' cutscene when you are sitting at the table with Pagan Min at the start of the game.

Then when it gave you full control it seemed to go to 100% load again until you go downstairs and see the guy (Tao pan?) being tortured. GPU not at 100% load and clocks going down.

It wasn't throttling as the GPU was only at about 60C

GPU2 wasn't in use at all.

Any ideas? I'll post this in the Far Cry 4 thread as well.

To the best of my knowledge that's not possible.

Were you using vsync or an fps cap? Was this only occurring on cut scenes or while you were actually playing?
 
Has anyone managed to install omega? I keep getting windows requires digitally signed driver pop ups for kernel and audio.

Hello everyone,

I've noticed that some users are reporting that the Catalyst Omega drivers are failing to install since the drivers are ‘unsigned’ and the device manager shows a Code 52 error. The Catalyst Omega driver is WHQL certified, so all components are signed.

The root cause is Microsoft update KB3004394 – (Windows Root Certificate Program in Windows) which was released yesterday. Uninstalling the update fixes the driver installation issue.

You can read more about the various issues this update causes at the following link:

Hey Matt,

Sorry to keep harping on about this, but is there any news on the multi-monitor DPC lag bug some of us are getting? Is there anything I can do to help them replicate/resolve it?

The game is very stuttery for me on 290x its the game
 
Far Cry 3 was the same. Very frustrating, as it's an otherwise great game (3. Not played 4, but I gather it's more of the same)

Performance is more of the same, as for the game, its the same thing as FC3 in a different setting, i preferred FC3, FC4 is a good game but its not as engaging and i feel they have over complicated it by stuffing it full useless little things to do and pointless things to discover all over the map.

Don't buy location map's early on, your world will get filled with all that junk, its annoying, its better not knowing a lot of it so you don't spend your life chasing pointless icons on the map.
 
So, I'm not all that clued up on these sorts of things, but if I enable to VSR setting for my monitor, then I can disable AA in all the games I play. Which essentially replaces one performance hit with another, but the VSR is more efficient/will produce a better quality picture?
Also, as I have two monitors, but only game on one, I can leave the second without VSR enabled?
 
so far so good on my olde 6950s in cod:aw...crossfire running fine and smooth and maybe a slight temp drop.

Still get the bad lag at start of a few maps while textures load in background,but not as bad as previous drivers
