AMD Catalyst 14.7 RC3 (14.200.1004.0 August 11)

Nah, I tried the first couple of 14.7s, and 14.6s and they've completely broken everything that I use, Eyefinity changes have destroyed just about everything, unusable for me

 

Tried BF4 last night with these new drivers, I tried BF4 CTE as well.
Best drivers up to date, imo (when it comes to my PC and BF4).

FPS increase, no stuttering/microstuttering and BF4 works like a charm, smooth as butter.

 

It uses AMDs internal video coding hardware, so it works only on HD7000 and above..

Nice!

Were you using DX11 or Mantle?

 

I agree completely. I tried the game last night with these new drivers and it still is nearly unplayable on Ultra quality. Nevertheless, Ubisoft is here to blame really, not AMD.

 

You said it. Ubisoft failed here.

 

Try this workaround posted by MerolaC if you want to keep the latest beta and fix DX9 corruption in your PC. This only takes a couple of seconds.

Great drivers as usual AMD keep up the good work ! Tried many games from dx9-dx11 all work perfectly as usual. Some of the games did get a fps boost also! I am happy with my decision of purchasing the 290 and it having 1 gb more memory than the 780.

 

Yeah, i know, thanks.
i used it with RC1 and now i'm using it with RC3, just wanted to note, that this issue is still not fixed completely =)

 

Use CRU to create custom resolutions on AMD systems

 

Not sure if it is my monitor or the 290 but it always completely disconnects my monitor when i turn it off and now there is a annoying warning with these when I turn it on (dell 3011 using dp). Only happens with dp too

 

ULPS appears to be working once again with these drivers, tried a few different games and no 99% bug on the second card.
I have no doubt this will be broken again in the next iteration.

Win 8.1

 

budd sorry to keep pressing this issue, but what was your highest temp with these drivers?

 

Thanks a lot for the link to that interview. I've found it extremely interesting

 

Shouldn't these have been 14.8 RC1, seen as were now in the 8th month, August, as when they released another set of the 14.6s, didn't they call them 14.7s, seen as they were in July at the time of release ?.

 

Nah, these should be 14.0.0.0.0.0.0.0.1 Pre-Alpha

 

lol...

 

This driver the best so far for me.
Is there a way arround the memory leak in BF4,this is the only problem for me. 7970cf game.maxvariablefps 120 (never droops below 100fps)cpu usage normal,not like with dx11 when it's spiking like hell and fps droops,
mantle settings everything on ultra 4xmsaa, 1080p,i can play 1 full 64p map then i get the memory error.

 

14.7 RC3 running just as hot as all the other 14.7's but at least it comes with a performance boost. Another boring update from AMD, how depressing! I really hope the lack of innovation recently is due to the time they are spending on overhauling CCC. Its been almost 5 years with the same bland control panel. I really wish catalyst creator would mention something about it but it looks like he's straight up ignoring any info relevant to the over haul. Talk about top secret files..Somebody leak some info pleeeeeeeeeeeeasseeeee

 

lol.
