good looking out mac
 
Get a solid 90 fps with these, seems to be using about 25-50% of each card, but it's solid. Not sure why it doesn't go higher. Probably not AMD's fault plays smooth though. talking about COD:AW

I've been wondering how good COD:AW is. If I buy one, I might try those AMD's latest beta driver. Otherwise, I'm sticking with a 14.9 WHQL driver for now.

What's with these worthless "updates" from AMD, are they just updating application profiles or some crap? Do they have like one guy working on their drivers during his free time? Isn't the Direct3D version generally the most important thing when gaming? That hasn't been updated in well over a month (since 14.9 WHQL)...

Instead of telling us how crappy these drivers are, why not provide specific issues you're having. It's more productive and actually helps in improving them.
 
YES!!! NEC's SpectraView II software no longer breaks. Previously anything past the 14.7RC3 drivers would break NEC's monitor calibration software. With these new drivers all is well now.

However I need to also add that NEC also released an update to their software (SV) today. Thus installing both these updates (AMD, NEC), I can't say who fixed who - Was it AMD's update, or NEC's update? I just know I no longer get SpectraView II has stopped responding when updating Cat driver issues anymore. Yay :D
 
Big BUG, do not attempt to use the download feature in CCC. It will just sit here and get stuck, hitting cancel does nothing. :

i did notice patch Tuesday updated the firewall and asked me to block java.

Because 3-way 290x's don't need to be utilised much to run CoD at a 90fps cap. There just isn't enough load to push 3 GPU's. If you could uncap it, run a higher res, or use higher settings like SSAA, gpu usage would rise.

It hasn't worked for me for quite awhile either. Button for viewing the download page does though. Same pic as you even with the 14.9.2 as well as 14.11.1 beta under current version shows as not installed.(beta)
Rapter atleast acknowledges that beta 14.11.1 is installed unlike the 14.9.2 beta
 
the Windows 7 x64 driver installer is corrupt ... (tried download multiple times on multiple computers via multiple browsers)

can someone tell AMD staff to fix it ?

Works fine for me too.Also w7 x64.


I installed 14.11.1 manually and i driver update from CCC and by checking only "Amd Catalyst Suite(beta)" it says "the current version is up to date"...So it's working for me too...
