AMD Catalyst 11.5a Hotfix (8.85.6 RC3 - May 16)

Extract the content of the rar this directory: C:\AMD\AMD_Catalyst_11.5a_Hotfix_8.85.6RC3_Win7_May16 then launch Setup.exe, if the driver fails to install, install it the driver via device manager.

 

I used this driver as i play lately only Natural Selection 2 game, and i might say these drivers runs miles better than the previous one...specially the Dynamic lights when Alien team Blow up the power nodes that lead us into total Darkness!!

check the game here http://www.naturalselection2.com/

 

wonder when RC4 comes out, hope its soon..

 

Why is that?RC4 will bring performance improvements for brink

Crap game.

We want performance improvements for The witcher 2.

 

I really hope they fix the fullscreen bug for TW2...

 

Must be for you then...

I also have x2 HD6970's, I run these RC3 drivers since today, without any CAP's installed, and using Radeon Pro (FEAR.exe CrossfireX Profile + MVPUMode to Alternate Frame Rendering) I never seen it below 100fps! :banana:

So far these drivers are great for my CFX setup.

 

So, has many AMD GPU owners found this?

Seems to work ok here, but then again, I'm on one of those bad driver AMD cards, not the 'perfect, never fails Nvidia' cards :banana:

 

Thanks tried this but fails to intall again. I have tried installing via device manager but maybe im doing it wrong, I keep getting 'drivers are not compatible with this version of windows'?

 

out of the 11.5s this is the worst in terms of mouse-lag in the upper corner.
this issue was almost gone with RC1 and RC2, but with RC3 it's worse than ever. at least for me...

 

LOL! I just checked (I'm on RC3's) and I have no Mouse lag in that corner anymore!!! Awesome! :banana:

 

Are you using DPI scalling?

 

Hmm, I will check the Fear profile. I know that a clean install with 11.5a without CAP is faster in that game though, but the CAP contains improvements for other games, so I need it.

 

That's a game bug and occurs on Nvidia cards too.

 

witcher 2 will also be improved with rc4. and brink too... and witcher 2 cf profiles will be out too when catalyst releases.

 

Maybe you need the profile. But it's said a new CAP for Witcher 2 won't fix it, it's not a profile issue, it's a driver issue. So you better hope RC4 will have the Witcher 2 fix because a CAP alone won't do it.

 

rc4 will do it and cap will improve it for cf systems.

 

FYI - I installed this driver yesterday since my boot hd died (again!) deleting ntos.dll or ntkernal.dll (might be a virus) so I reinstalled W7 Pro x64 and this driver. Previously was on RC2.

I noticed this driver did not include the openCL driver but went ahead and installed the Nvidia drivers for my dedicated PhysX card (275.20 or whatever the latest beta).

So I tested with Fluidmark and PhysX is working with my 6590 in CFX.

Next I tested the Dolphin Emulator in DX9 - works. I test with DX9 + OpenCL (on the Nvidia card) WORKS! Previously, enabling OpenCL from the RC2 drivers using my 6950 would crash.

Just wanted to throw this out there. I know RC4 is coming after I had installed these drivers so will see how that goes.

 

Hi there,

RC4 for tomorow !

Brink CFx and the witcher 2 fix :banana:

 

Would be cool to start the thread now!
