Looks like a new beta driver was released yesterday! Glad it addresses some performance w/ CrossFire in Total War Rome II... Just wish they would fix Splinter Cell Black List and CrossFire

just had a few random video lock up moments in tribes. to the point of monitor going into standby, didnt get to try in borderlands 2 or bioshock but if it didnt make it past tribes then it wasnt worth my time....

was clean install, driver swept and all

going back to 13.8

I'm not having any problems, except Total War Rome 2 is still glitchy... BF3, Splinter Cell Blacklist still doesn't like crossfire but played fine. SR4 looks good too, though I haven't had any driver issues with that game...

Sapphire 7970 vapor-x here. On 13.8, I was getting splinter cell blacklist to run beautifully, with ultra settings, AF x 16, msaa X 2 and field ao. Upgraded to 13.10 last night after clean sweep and started getting some slowdown in the game, which didn't happen omce on 13.8. Thinking of going back to 13.8. Anyone having performance problems as well? Should I re-install 13.10 or revert back to 13.8? I also downloaded the application profiles

If you're getting a noticeable negative difference, then I would revert to your previous driver.

Yeah I think I might do that... but do you think a re-install of 13.10 would make a difference?

 

[White Runner]

It could be... I uninstall the current driver, boot to safe mode and run Driver Cleaner to delete any remnants of the previous driver; then install the new driver!

Seems all the same to me so far, ill have to do more testing

Give the reinstall a try it could help.
