    Your notebook won't ever support Mantle, even when mobility driver is released, no gcn.

    Oh OK I was told it did, but that is OK. It plays BF4 pretty well anyway just at low settings. It isn't my gamer any way, just the one take with me out of town. Thanks ! I wondered about that being a 6000 series. The guy told me all APU's had gcn:3eyes: Thanks !

    Hello, so is there any possibility to get rid of this switching bug? Maybe another driver or something because its quite annoying.
    Other than that bf4 runs on stable 45-60 fps (ultra-settings)on my GX70-3be (unlocked BIOS, dynamic graphic switch disabled).

    Please help me, i am very frustrated with this bug...

    Kind regards.

    Sweet. Looks like I'm gonna have to try Mantle again lol. I only have a single 7970m though. I never drop below 30fps with DX11 though, and I play on Ultra settings at 1680x1050 (native res of laptop).

    Hi I still have the issue where when the screen goes black after idle mode, or plugging in or out the power adapter, or running any graphics program or game.
    The video in the game is smooth but after closing the game or program everything is flickering and I have to reboot my laptop.

    What is this 13.30 RC3?
    Is that an update of your version of catalyst?
    I'm asking because I have downloaded your driver once it was released and since I cant find any changelog in the first post I assumed its still the same.
    Should I re-download?

    Also for me the game is barely playable right now in mantle - I have a massive fps increase [like +20fps -WOW] but for some reason every now and then the game stutters.
    Lets just hope AMD will give us new beta in 6 days when Thief comes ...

    PS. my rig is msi gx70-3be with custom bios so the only GPU running is 8970m

    Has anyone tried this driver in Dx9 games or 3dmark06? I tried for a long time to play LoL but my screen is flashes like a crazy. Same thing in 3dmark06..

    Seriously, why AGAIN no Mantle in Beta 14-2? That's a disgusting marketing strategy from AMD, they excluding their laptop users to buy a desktop. I have a FREAKING GCN GPU, I CAN PROFIT from Mantle, but just because it's Enduro it won't support it, what is this? Mantle for ALL GCN GPUs should be their ABSOLUTELY FIRST PRIORITY, and not that Crossfire for 2k resolution nobody uses. Now Mantle is for desktops only, but not for Mobility so it isn't for all GCN GPUs LIKE PROMISED.

    I bought a laptop to work and to play, and with that play aspect I HAD MANTLE IN MIND. I want to use Mantle like the desktop GPUs and not in 8 months, I WANT IT FREAKING NOW. I don't want to be treated like **** just because I'm a laptop user.

    AMD CPUs are so weak, the Framerate in BF4 is horrible regardless of which settings. I can't freaking play it and my CPU (AMD A8 5557m) is above of a Core2Duo (min requirements) in Siege of Shangai it DROPS TO FREAKING 18 FPS... I can't play the game and Mantle is THE SOLUTION for that because its definately CPU limited. I can push the graphics settings to high and its still CPU limited. Its crazy how weak the mobility APU CPUs are, absolutely no CPU power. Mantle is the perfect fit for that so why no Mantle support yet?

    Yes, I'm angry. It can't be that certain user groups are excluded from features that requires GCN, and it is GCN.

    Sorry for bad words but I can't calm down.

    Yes it will, in the final version. Not in a beta. Please calm down.

    You are only calmed down because it runs on your laptop, with Leek's help of course. You would exactly act like me in my situation.

    You know that the final version will be in 8-12 months? Amd is so slow in making beta final.

    As I said, I bought it with Mantle in mind. I could go for a Nvidia laptop instead.

    AMD failed in the mobile market. http://news.mydrivers.com/1/294/294088.htm

    NVIDIA mobile graphics is jackpot. (Maxwell Architecture, Coming soon to a strong performance in a low-power.)

    Important)Optimus issue is less than the Enduro.

    I don't even know if today's release will be modded and working on my pc like the previous one. Yet it's not a matter of panicking in case of a temporary lacking support for mobile cards.

    They promised Mantle for Q1 2014. We can wait a little bit more, I think. It would be utterly stupid for AMD to leave behind the bulk of laptop users for too long, expecially while they're selling some cards (R9 M290X) with esplicit Mantle support.

    Little longer? You know what soons means to AMD? New example: The Ruby Tech Demo. Promised 6 months ago to download "soon" same with Mantle.

    Yes, that would be stupid but its AMD, they always make stupid decisions.

    well deserved. AMD treats laptop users like ****, users are treating AMD like ****

    They just broke their promises. For all GCN? Sure, lol. Also HD7XXX users are also not well optimized.
