I had to revert to previous drivers for now, its all down to MW3 which I do play a lot as a few of my mates play it.
Its a shame because it seems a good driver but not for this game, it causes a Dx crash and on the previous driver (13.11v1 i think) it will not run in crossfire)
All other games run fine, but hey its always gonna be the game you want to play that suffers!
 
Hmm..

Raptr has a Quality slider so you can go from Performance --> Balanced --> Quality. I had it set Crysis 3 automatically and I had really nice frame rate. It picked some nice settings that kept my frame rate from dipping during multiplayer. You can stream to Twitch.tv with the client. And if you take the time to sign up for Raptr so it can track your time played during games there are nice rewards like free skins for some of the sponsored games it tracks.

I got a free copy of Rift and some cosmetic swag for the game. I got a 25% off coupon for one purchase on Gamefly, I got free gold to spend in numerous F2P games like Warframe for example. I got free exclusive vehicles in Defiance. I got Closed Beta access to some games. I got a code for 25% off Shadow Warrior on Steam. They have had things such as free DLC for Assassin's Creed 3 and other games.

All in all not a bad thing from what I've seen. I don't get advertising from them so zero complaints from me.

been playing a few rounds of gulf of oman with these new drivers and WOW. Admittedly with a few things turned down - AAx2, blur off, shadows high, effects high, no fxaa, but i'm averaging 105fps on my 7970 at 1080p, 1% and 0.1% both at 60fps, and i'm regularly doing 140+ for extended periods of time, and temps and fan noise are down. i was tempted by a 290x for bf4, but AMD if you keep this up you may have shot yourself in the foot.

they also brings Mantle with BF4 ;)

anyhow, installed the beta 13.11v6 over the old drivers, no issue with win 8.1 as far I can tell.

Which version of Windows are you using?

You can recover your gpu using igp to flash back, but flashing without a dual bios would prove 100% you are more butch than chuck, after all the Nvidia bhoys don't have a dual bios....:D

igp? do tell more.

I do want to flash it. tone down the volts and set the power limit a bit higher.

My GPU come in both Hynix and Elpida vertions, i have the Hynix, i don't want to use a different BIOS, to be safe i would rather edit my own and then Flash that.

Is there a good BIOS editor you can recommend? and please explain if there is an easy recover should it go wrong. thanks :)

Edit, Bloomfield i7, no igp :)
