AMD Catalyst 12.6 (8.980.0 May 22) AMD Official BETA

ENB is custom shader replacement through injector. Yes, it's hard to implement.

 

I'm pleased to say this driver release has fixed my HDMI audio problems. Nice work AMD and thanks Asder for the link.

 

Alright so... 3D clocks still locked, overdrive section of AMD drivers still disappear when clicked, and artifacting in some games which requires an alt-tab to fix.

Seems like a standard run-of-the-mill AMD driver.

 

I also experience the overscan reset like many others when using HDMI on my two Radeon HD 7970 CrossfireX after installing these drivers (clean install).

I then uninstalled the driver once again (clean) and reinstalled it and which fixed the overscan issue.

 

sometimes ''grey screen of death'' or “light blue screen of death” when I did office work or surfing the internet, 3D gaming is ok

 

after I set 2D/3D clock to default, everything is fine now

 

GPU 2 Memory Clock stuck @ 1000MHz with these drivers

 

same, and fan is LOUD

 

Sorted it, goto Device manager and right click GPU2 > update driver > browse my computer > let me pick > choose 8.980 again from the list and tell it to update

It took about 5 minutes of the screen flashing on and off but eventually fixed it and now both GPUs are back to normal idle clock speeds

 

Please, asder could you tell AMD to release theese drivers for AGP cards HD3xxx/4xxx in future releases ?
Thx

 

@vejn - this is the first of the new driver model, there will NEVER be any cards less than 5000 series in these.

you will have to wait for the quarterly legacy drivers.

here is the latest:

Three times since i installed the 12.6, my monitor has gone black while browsing the internett.. and i have to restart my pc..

Any idea?

 

may be turn clocks down a little or check all old drivers gone

 

Happening to me too :\

 

Similar here. Flickering on all browsers. Then couldn't start up system. Automatic fixes ended up resorting to a Windows Restore savepoint with 12.4

So for my system, 12.4 WQHL seems stable but this 12.6 certainly not.

 

that's good, someone with an actual connection can reproduce things & try private hotfixes

the point was already made in the skyrim thread, not moheban... just cuz someone isnt crying & complaining like a baby doesnt make them a fanboy, how stupid... nobody put a gun to anyone to buy a 2nd card or a non multiplayer game at $60, a fanboy pretends nothing is wrong & talks bad about everyone else

 

Disabled HDMI audio when the connected HDTV is powered Off/On.


finally! installing

 

First off, you need to watch the language and attitude. Attempting to insult others only makes you look less than competent.

Second, whining on this forum doesn't do any good. AMD has provided ways to give feedback on drivers. Use them.

Third, I'm far from being an AMD fanboy. This is my first AMD card since the HD4800 series launched in 2008. Since that card I've had a G210, GT220, GT240, GTS250, GTX275, GTX460 and GTX560Ti. So far, in 20+ years of computing, I've only experienced a handful of issues that was directly related to any driver. It's not AMD's, Intel's or nVidia's fault that games are so poorly coded.

 

This driver rocks. HDMI audio problems solved, plus now perfectly stable with multiple monitors. Woo!

 

yes these drivers do ROCK !! :banana: my overclocks even seamed to of increased :thumbup::thumbup:
