    Went back to w7 today. No flickers in games, just on my desktop once in a while. Feels good to be back. OC is stable as hell. This driver works a lot better on 7.

    Disagree, this driver was made for Win 8, just so much more stable on Win 8.

    Any 6xxx series GPU user can confirm these drivers are good and if they're worth switching from 12.9 to this BETA as 12.9 are working great on my 6xxx CFx setup?

    Same for me. I hope it gets fixed.

    +1 to this. I get artifacting while bitmining on Win7, but don't on Win8. Nexuiz BSoD's on Win7 in DX11 mode, whereas it just crashes on Win8.

    Very doubtful to me. Your CPU is still very powerful. BF3 and other games aren't nearly as CPU intensive as some make em out to be. Even on my laptop, these games don't use 50% of CPU.

    I have an XFX 2Gb 7870, and was having huge problems with the frozen system + sound loop problem in World of Warcraft. I eventually uninstalled the 7870 and went back to my 5850.

    With the new beta drivers I decided to have a new go at the 7870. I did a complete driver sweeper uninstall, a 12.11b4 install without the sound driver, disabled the AC97 and ASUS HDAudio in BIOS, and installed my old ASUS Xonar DX. And I now play WoW under DX9.

    The crashes seemed to be gone (none after about 16 hours of play) and the performance is better, but there are a few rendering artifacts. I got a couple of triangle sprays in WoW, and missing mob in Mass Effect 3. But that's way better than crashes.

    Don't bother.

    1. These drivers are meant for the 7 series. You will not see the performance improvements.

    2. If things are working "great", there's no need to change.

    My thought exactly. Even I wouldn't mind seeing performance improvement on 6xxx series though.
    Drivers are working great in term of stability. Performance wise...almost every driver I tried is meh.

    Love how the 12.10 CAP's say they include a Crysis 2 profile that fixes crossfire performance when I am using them with 12.11 betas and still get horrid performance at max settings, with texture pack and dx11 installed? Around 50-60% usage on both GPU's and frame rates go from 30's to 50's with a turn of the mouse. Feels very strange.

    Somethings wrong, I'm running a 2 monitor setup at 3840-1080-on Ultra and getting 60-100 fps-I'd fiddle withit some-these drivers are great- They make 7970s much stonger than the 680s

    Installed Win8 with this driver and Rage crashes as soon as I run it. I assume it has something to do with the driver? Anyone else have this problem?

    The 12.11's, when compared to the 12.7 beta set, added 800 to my P score and a whoopin 1200 to my graphics. wooot :)

    I really don't think the mobo upgrade had anything to do with it. lol

    why is the idle temp so damn high? 53C? on my 7950 MSI Twin FrozrII

    voltage are 1081mv (which is only slightly high than stocks of 1030)
    1084 core / 1350 mem

    pls help. is it a driver issue? I dont think my OC is too high. After like 30-60 mins of BF3 or SC2 the temps are high 60's to low 70's, so i know its not that bad

    Need more details; is this a new card? Does it only happen with these drivers? Have you tried other drivers? Did you do anything physical with your GPU (bump it, reseat it, etc.)?

    I might try reseating thermal paste if you haven't though, helped me with my 7850 PE
