anyone using windows 10 with amd cards?

Thinking of sticking it on my machine. But in the interest of making life easier on myself -I.e more stable - should I stick with 8.1?

Are the drivers up to scratch? Any benefit over 8.1 for gaming?
 
I couldn't run any games for too long on win10 without them crashing. However I really liked what I saw, so wait for now, and switch later down the line when it's stable.
 
Windows 10 does scaling a lot better with my 4k monitor +2 1080p monitors but there was still a lot of bugs. Like my scroll wheel wouldn't even work on my right side monitor that I used for browsing the web. I went back to 8.1 until a more official release is done.
 
I have running windows 10 build 9926 with a AMD Radeon HD 5830 with no issues at all.

can play csgo, minecraft and far cry 4.
 
Hmmm, sounds like still some teething issues...

In the interest of keeping life simple, will stick with 8.1 and put 10 on a vm

Want my gaming to be more trouble free...
 
Running 8.1 here also but will prob swap to win10 once I buy my next Gpu and monitor upgrade. I went to win8 during beta and never went back, and it's been relatively painless
 
Am running Windows 10 9926 with my 5930k, and AMD 295x2 / 290x Crossfire.

Not had any problems to be honest, other than the Windows task bar sometimes changes position to weird places if you change the resolution of one of the monitors (multi monitor)
 
i got win 10 with a quadfire 7990, not (too) much problems gaming with a 4k monitor that i've encountered so far *fingers crossed* =x
 
Had it since release with a 290 and having experienced any issues yet. Which isn't to say that I won't have issues on the next patch, or the patch after that or the patch after that.
As always, it's best to avoid early builds to avoid headaches. If you don't mind the odd niggle here and there though then go for it.
