Great stuff Asder! Wonder if these have the crossfire options the other drivers have

Russ369 · 11-21-2011, 20:58 | posts: 551 | Location: Toronto

Is there a way to get the performance improvements of these drivers while also getting the ability to edit application profiles with the 8.93 (12.1 preview) drivers?

Just install drivers from the Performance but install the CCC and apps from the leaked mishmash.

So would I first have to instal the performance drivers, then untick the the driver and leave everything else from the 8.93?

So then just install the display driver part of it, leave everything else untouched so you have best of both worlds

stefik · 11-21-2011, 21:12 | posts: 181 | Location: Poland

I'm pretty curious if these 11.11a have application profiles too.

Russ369 · 11-21-2011, 21:13 | posts: 551 | Location: Toronto

I would so go with these if they had that "Edit Application Profiles" feature that the 8.93's had... So I can turn off CFX for Skyrim in the meantime without having to disable it throughout the entire system...
