**THE AMD DRIVERS THREAD**

[Matson]

Thanks, i'v just looked up about disabling ULPS...

Do i only change the EnableUlps reg_dword file to 0 or do i also change the EnableUlps_NA file to 0 aswell?

Just the first one, and then find next you should have two disableulps
Then restart, you have to do this each time you install a new driver.

Just kill it in aferburner, as easy as checking a box

I don't use Afterburner or trixx no more my both Overclocks done in ccc I get both my cards to 1000/1375 on stock volts.
So regedit for me

 

[pgi947]

Ah, in which case you can get one click scripts to disable it for you too

 

[Zeed]

Ok catzilla crashing on those new drivers :/
Heaven +1 point on 3 runs
Valley 0 change time to play some wow.

 

[evohicks]

I'm getting more usage out of my cards for sure but only tested 1 game for 10 mins so no cigar just yet, but optimisic.

 

[L0rdMike]

My first testing was awesome disabled crossfire to play a old game/mod and now crossfire back on but not performing as well as when I first go the drivers.

 

[Loxa]

I know this driver is to solve the Xfire issues but is there any reason to use this on single GPU set ups?

 

[Zeed]

Thrust4Money well wow in 3d runs smoother for starters

 

[L0rdMike]

Great now a blue screen loop.

 

[RageQuit©]

Single GPU user here, thought I'd try them out for the hell of it. Absolutely woeful performance in Borderlands 2, very stuttery. Back to 13.6 I go!

Run driver fusion is safe mode and re install the driver. Something on your end is messed up it looks like as others not reporting bsod.

 

[pgi947]

Remember these drivers are BETA, in other words not finished/complete/fully functional/perfect.

IF you find a problem, don't just change drivers and ignore it, fill out a report form with AMD, if you don't tell them about the problem they can't fix it!!!

 

[Martini1991]

No DX9 seems a bit strange.

 

[Doco]

Sorry I didnt make things too easy - yeh reinstalling it re-enabled ULPS which I didnt realise and had to disable it again - personally what I use is the HIS software that comes with the HIS cards -option to disable ULPS (just tick a box) and just restart and your sorted

 

[opethdisciple]

So AMD have completely done away with WHQL drivers and just deliver Betas?
