AMD Catalyst 14.4 (14.100.0.0 March 27)

That AMD clean-up utility is known to remove other drivers, so id stay clear from that.

 

Is BSOD fixed on this set with firefox Flash/HTML5 Video or random 2d desktop flickering?
douting it as all the other 14.x sets have this feature also seems from checking here and other threads they still have the blank screen from wake bug.

Looks like they've gone from taking 1 step forward & 2 steps back to deciding to totally stand still,makes them look a little silly after what Nv have pulled out of the bag with reducing there CPU overhead in there last beta set.

 

Will these install on Vista 64?

 

You're aware of this not being an official driver without a changelog right?

 

Since when did AMD release this driver? Answer they never so any issue is your own fault for installing a LEAKED driver.

My god some people

 

How did you do that? I have an error message as I start the installer. Did you just installed the driver manually through the device manager? I didn't try that yet.. or maybe I just wait a few days until some official version comes out.

 

They are working on Windows 7 by just installing them like you always do, with the setup.

That error you see is AMD Accelerated Video Transcoding not getting installed.

 

I am, Electric Man!

 

Cheers for the info! :banana:

 

These are better than the 14.3 driver for 7970 in Darksiders II.

With the previous driver, the game would jerk around a bit for a while when I first loaded it and then smooth out. Sometimes it would stay jerky and I would have to exit and reload to get it to work properly. (GPU usage would not go up very high when this happened as well).

These drivers seem to fix that.

I haven't been playing any other games lately, so can't comment on anything else.

 

Thats good. I see for most people this drivers for reviewers 14.4 helps, even if they don't bring anything new besides R9 295X2 support. (at least on paper).
I will wait for official release, but this sounds like it's gonna be great driver package, after all, this waiting...

 

there is absolutely nothing on paper, they are leaked.

 

Hey Vfriend! Thanks for making this for all old dual gfx Llano laptop users like me! leekm & you were the only ones making this possible with new drivers.

But any chance at making them work with Win7x64 & does game performance seem any better to you with these newer drivers? The best one for me has been 13.11b9.4, and everything later has been slightly worse.

 

I will do it work on win7/8/8.1 if amd release official drivers. I think they will release in this week.

14.4 14.3 14.2 13.12 13.9 gaming performance are even.. on my laptop.

 

Yes which is why i was asking if these bugs had been fixed ?

Is this not a user to user thread/forum with ppl reporting on what issues are fixed/broken with this "leaked" driver set? if i shouldn't ask here if bugs are fixed prey tell where should i ask?

Also AMD's change log with any driver release is pretty worthless as they don't list everything they've fixed (or broken)......

 

From Cat 14.1 to 14.3, OC'ed 3D clock would stick even when on desktop or surfing the net. With this driver, it's fixed, I OC'ed my cards to 1100/1350 and the 3D cocks did not stick, it dialed down to 2D clock of 300mhz. Keepers for me...

 

Do you use display port? My display "disconnects" itself when it goes to sleep or if I power it down when using display port. It happened with all AMD drivers. Also happened with NVIDIA so I'm not sure if it's more like display "issue" or if DP displays are supposed to do that.

 

So far so good, don't want to temp fate but first 14.x drivers that seem to be stable all round for me

 

glad you 290 guys are happy with them...everybody else still waiting...:wanker:

 

Nope, HDMI.

Its never disconnected in the past. evem with the prior 14.xs
