    This driver causes corrupt shadows in Warframe.

    Will tryout 14.8 WHQL since this beta causes RO2 (DX9) texture corruption.

    The 14.8 WHQL technically isn't a WHQL. It is only WHQL for certain GPU's, and once it became edited to support all GPU's it lost it's WHQL (it's basically just a 'certification'). On other GPU's it may or may not work as intended.

    I've seen no such thing here on my 7660G + 7670M laptop. Using DX11.

    Care to post a screenshot?

    The 14.8 is is a FULL WHQL, and is unaltered

    It supports all GPUs out of the box

    This is the 14.x beta driver which has been altered to support all GPU instead of just R9-285

    Just wanted to say, these drivers have been amazing for me. No issues with DX9 games, including State of Decay for me (****ing yes!!). Best performance I've had so far in BF4 and Warframe. Have been great all around so far.

    Indeed, it's weird, considering they were made for (targeted) at R9 285 and modified by asder00 (excellent work) improved performance and higher stability in Titanfall.

    To bad I need another 2GB (4GB) of video memory to run it on all high with insane textures and 8x EQAA.

    So do you need to boot into safe mode then run it or just run it and it will do everything?

    You can just run it in normal mode and it will ask if you want it to boot you into safemode (Recommended), hit yes and it will do so

    Seems good but i get a lot of AMD drivers crashed and kick me out of Pay Day 2. Not sure why. I got my OC in AMD drivers to 910 mhz.

    My Pay Day 2 keeps crashing, freezes and shows AMD drivers failed and corrected themselves.

    Wonderful; two hardlocks in a row when trying to wake the screen up... This issue is super annoying. Guess I'll just go back to leaving the screen on.

    There has been a major Warframe update since I switched back to 14.4.
    I'll give it another try and will post a screenshot if shadows are messed up again.

    Not a great workaround, but you could set the screensaver to blank screen instead

    When the next BF4 patch will hit the changelist will be huge, CTE is miles above what the current BF4 is. Performance with Mantle in BF4 is great, with some minor stuttering from time to time but that seems to be a game issue, related to that file that some have mentioned.

    Besides the lock-up with ULPS on, I have found another issue: in Dungeon Siege 3 (Crossfire off via profile) there is intermittent frame corruption. Once every 5-10-15 minutes one frame is corrupt, it has some randomly colored tiled squares pattern all over the screen. This did not happen with the 14.200 drivers (Cat 14.8).

    That was a Windows Update issue in my case. I think I had to uninstall KB2993651 something before that would go away. A few of the new Windows updates were causing serious problems with hard locks/blank screens for me. The latest set of patches seems to have resolved it though.

    I have a problem with CCC closing on it's own with that annoying 'Host Application Has Stopped Working' error. I'm going to try and repair CCC.

    These drivers have been amazing otherwise thus far.. performance in BF4 on my ancient 5850s has been glorious.
