Dann warte ich mal bis die ersten so ihre Eindrücke schreiben. Beta Tester spielen macht auf dauer auch keinen Spaß mit der Ausnahme von BF3:D

Hallo,
also ganz verstanden hab ich es nicht, was bringt einem dieser?
Sollte man es mit dem 13.1 Treiber mitinstallieren?
Was ist die "Neuinstallation" bei der Treiberinstallation?
 
Hi,

Den alten deinstallieren und dann beides installieren.
Du brauchst den CAP aufjedenfall.

@ Cosmic
Die Release Notes klappen jetzt.
 
Hi,
also wenn ich "Neuinstallation" wähle dann muss ich den alten Treiber nicht mehr deinstallieren? Macht der dann das automatisc?
Danke schonmal!
 
Hi Bobi,

Ich würde unter "Software" mit dem Manager erst alles deinstallieren und dann sauber neu installieren.

Quick tests regarding flickering issue on Catalyst 13.1

Skyrim:
Random ingame - Not visible
Flickerspot - Flickered once and then nothing for few minutes
Skin flickering - present but somehow "slower"

Witcher 2 - Enhanced edition:
Flotsam forest - again flickered once and then nothing

Starcraft II
With latest driver i can confirm that flickering IS finally present in this game even for me.

More tests later.


Sie werden den Bug (DX9 Image Corruption) wahrscheinlich erst bei einführung der HD8000 serie fixen, lol.
Traurig, traurig AMD
 
Also lohnt sich der neue Treiber gegenüber dem alten 12.11 Beta Treiber nicht ganz?
Ich habe mir eigentlich eine Mehrleistung in Spielen wie Assassins Creed 3 erhofft da diese ja schlecht auf Radeons laufen.
