Someone on Guru3d is claiming that 13.5 beta 2 are the prototype latency drivers. PG Tips awaiting your confirmation. Probably best to test latency with and without the caps for 13.2 beta 5.

Latency tested via frametimes??

I've recorded both frametimes and minmaxavg. I'm fairly sure the engine is capped at 200fps too ;)

13.4 WHQL ONLY:
Min - 88
Max - 201
Avg - 149.75

13.4 WHQL WITH 13.4 CAP1:
Min - 95
Max - 202
Avg - 154.00

13.5 BETA 2:
Min - 96
Max - 201
Avg - 153.57

13.5 BETA 2 W/ 13.4 CAP1:
Min - 95
Max - 202
Avg - 154.6

Worth mentioning I'm using Ultra Pre-set with Vsync disabled and a FOV of 85 on operation sword breaker.

About to run the benches now with the new betas and then betas with cap.

Good stuff pgi always interesting to see real world results. Could you try one more run after that with some RadeonPro settings that i could give you? I have a feeling i can make your line even straighter.

Sure, but this will be the last one for tonight, I must have done op-swordbreaker 50 times.

Edit: Earlier post updated with 13.5 results!!

Ok well this one is simple, two runs.

First up cut and paste this into your main bf3 game folder with the exe. Run the game do the bench.

After you've benched the latency+fps of that one try this one. Delete the old file and replace it with this one.

Will be interested to see if you can notice a difference in smoothness between the two and your own original stock settings. :)

The first file:

Min - 96
Max - 201
Avg - 156.46

And the second config file:

Min - 71
Max - 77
Avg - 74.92

Both felt very smooth :)

Edit: Both were on 13.5 Beta 2 with 13.4 CAP 1.

A little yes. But I don't play BF3 that much these days :p

I take it according to the 'reviewers' my 7970 CF should be showing those frame times bouncing all over the place??
