    playing a beta with preview drivers, don't expect miracle and bug free gaming experience. I think for more stability i will stick with 11.9 whql

    I tested 11.9 whlq + cap 4 and 11.10 without caps.

    I dont see any diference, in ultra settings, im getting over 75 frames outdoors with the artifacts, black lines and texture flickering with both driver.

    But with games like, dead island, f1 2011, shogun 2, dirt 3 etc im getting better framerates with 11.9 whlq, so i stick with it for the moment.

    As I've said here, both 11.9 and 11.10 had basically the same bugs and performance on BF3 beta. They're both good enough for a beta experience.

    Stupid question: Did you divide the vram usage by 2.

    To Pill, see the anandtech link above. Scaling can often be great with CFX. It is my experience in many games. Please try not to generalize the fact you may have seen CFX issues in some cases.

    No, I did not divide the VRAM Usage by 2, I just posted what MSI Afterburner tells me, and it tells me it is using 2322MB right now in the Metro MAP.

    I never said it wasn't.

    I said you can't expect 80% scaling in all games, so please don't try and put words in my mouth. I've already proved my point.

    I know you can't expect that in all games, but you can expect that in all famous games like BFBC2, Metro 2033, Crysis 2... etc etc etc

    I'm sure we will get a lot better scale in BF3 with proper drivers.

    It's possible. Both game and drivers are beta, so things can only improve with time...

    That's what I was trying to explain you, I didn't mean to get us in a flamewar. :)

    BFBC2 was running very bad at the beggining of the BETA, after the game released, together with some performance tweaks on DICE's side, and proper drivers from AMD/Nvidia, we got much better performance than beta. :)

    Nor did I, my posts weren't really directed at you, I was just pissed off hence the "retarded" comment (sorry about that btw)...

    I just don't appreciate a new member like Grand Max telling me "you don't know what you're talking about", when many people here would prob say that couldn't be further from the truth....
    I've been around this site long enough I don't feel I have to backup everything I say, but if I need to, I will.

    But that's enough trumpet blowing from me...:p

    I think we agree on most points anyway...

    I also have black lines flickers in Battlefield 3 Beta with 11.10 drivers. This is very annoying, because i look to the sky and i see random black lines flickering.

    ¿Any way to fix this?.

    (Excuse my poor english).

    HD6850 CFX + Catalyst 11.10 = very bad performance, artefacts/flickering all over the place and most annoying..every 4-5 seconds it freezes. With crossfire disabled it's ok, no more freezing.
