    No noticeable change in TF2 performance (using an intense timedemo, average FPS stayed 48 going from 9.4 to 9.5)....but I think the CPU limitation issues TF2 has is holding it back.....my GPU maxes out at maybe 80% utilization (I have it limited to 80 FPS, but even when it drops it doesn't max my GPU).

    Other than that they don't seem any worse than 9.4, so no point (for me at least) to roll back to 9.4

    Hmm.. These obviously run the same core as the 9.4s. They fixed the powerplay bug, which is good, but they still run a few degrees hotter than the 9.3s for some reason, just like the 9.4s did. It's around a 5-9 degree difference. Quite considerable. This is even at idle.

    @ WhiteLightning, The same here. Vertical stripes on both screens. I think I'm going to try to roll back to the original 9.4...

    Why isn't the temp bug fixed yet?
    Seem like 9.3 had much lower temps compare to this one.

    Not good for OC.

    Is it just me or the catalyst 9.1 and up increase the temperature of GPU. My GPU was running at 31-34 Degrees idle on catalyst 8.12 and on 9.1 and up, temps increased to 40-41 Degrees idle.

    Also,

    Yes, my temperatures are also up, and my whole system is unstable.

    You have a massive overclock on your video card there, it actually runs Furmark at those speeds or even ATItool artifact tester?

    @ Rflair, I had to back it op to stock in order to maintain stability. I even had to decrease the memory clocks to 800! Really strange. After I rolled back to the WHQL 9.4 everything was back to normal.

    Can someone mod them to work with Vista 32bit using a HD2400HD?

    I wonder if its more a Rivatuner issue with these newer drivers. Your sig suggest you are using RT for volt mods.
