    One problem resolved, I got it back too by resizing/maximising the crimson settings window. The scrollbar was missing, maybe due windows scaling, I'm on 250%. But it still won't force an other game profile in case of Skyrim for example...sghhh.

    Btw, I read on ocuk that the framerate cap from msi AB could interfear with the clockspeed, so looking at that now.

    Edit, to bad no change, this what happens with and without msi AB, the second GPU drops to 500..frames where once 60 in stead of 30.

    It's unbelievable that we still need to make our own frankenbuild driver mix to have some things working properly.

    UNBELIEVABLE!

    I really don't understand what people with CFX are complaining about. Sure there is still no profile for Rainbow Six:Siege, the division profile is a mess, etc... but we got this!!!1

    AMD Crossfire™ Status Indicator: A new feature in Radeon™ Settings that allows users to toggle an AMD Crossfire™ status indicator on their screen when running in AMD Crossfire™ mode.

    AND I CANT WAIT TO SHARE IT WITH ALL MY FACEBOOK FRIENDS USING.......................................................................................................................Wait for it!!!!............................................................

    Updated Social Links: New Social links are now available for Radeon™ Settings home page and have also updated based on geographical region.

    Whatever happened to 8xEQ anti aliasing? Not there anymore. Goes up to 8x now.

    Click fullscreen. It's still there.

    They need to take windows scaling into account.

    Huh, guess I missed AFR compatible being there in older drivers too.

    Also, holy sh*t, pre-defined profile isn't gone, it's just some sort of scaling issue as others pointed out. :bang: If you maximize Radeon Settings it pops up in the menu. It has to be maximized though, just having a large window doesn't help. I can hardly believe this, I guess nobody at AMD tests this thing with scaling above 100%.

    FreeSync is still broken though. Back to 16.2.1. :bang:

    When I opened the Crimson software for the first time the Power Efficiency Toggle was there for me, I closed it then opened it again and it had disappeared.. haha..

    What is it meant to do exactly?

    It's supposed to keep your card from lowering its core clock to save power.

    When play Mortal kombat X with power efficiency OFF.. run better but the clocks is in 800 mhz not run in full clock "1040"

    and no see the Power Efficiency in profile game only in global settings !

    But is it real (exclusive) fullscreen or borderless-windowed fullscreen?

    no its not.

    Its supposed to disable certain power optimization functions ONLY on 3xx and Fury.

    your clocks will still bounce around, but you shouldnt see any performance hit.

    There is, but it's like a cat. It goes away if you try to touch it.

    LOL.

    Is that serious?

    Anyone can mod a .inf or teach me how to do it?
    I got a legacy R5 230, and amd skipped 16.3 for legacy :(

    I don't believe that the Vulkan drivers actually work on Terascale any longer.

    My bad then, I thought they would disable all "power saving" features. Too bad that such an option doesn't exist, because obtaining ideal performance while clocks fluctuate is probably impossible unless the driver can tell the future and knows to increase clocks before actual load on the GPU increases. :D Anyway, maybe their algorithm is smart enough to avoid issues. Lowering clocks in a scenario where FPS is limited (either by FRTC, RTSS, VSync, etc.) could potentially be handled very well, as in they could lower clocks while waiting for the next frame.


    Anybody else using FreeSync and having issues with 16.3? It's either not working properly or not working at all for me in DX11, I get a line of tearing near the bottom of the screen and the only way to get rid of it is to use VSync. This doesn't happen in 16.2.1, it's flawless there.
