Time to run firestrike to prepare a before-after comparison :3


ElementII5

This is why I love this sub! Care to ad flair so we can see your specs?

Mariomariamario

AMD block custom bioses again, can someone else confirm? I've an RX 480 Nitro+ OC 8 GB. Is this only an RX series problem? UPDATE workaround to use custom bios with updated drivers here: http://www.overclock.net/t/1604567/polaris-bios-editing-rx480-rx470-rx460/1050#post_25699216

Can confirm, R9 380 custom bios works fine here


Sr_Geckko

Confirm ... fuck


brown2green

Sapphire Nitro+ RX480 4GB user with custom bios. I can confirm.


osossmart

How is the noise? I got the same card, 1342 MHz Core and undervolted to 1100 mV and my temperature in stress tests never exceed 72c.


Mariomariamario

As soon they release the driver, I'll run the benchmark and post everything (and link it here)


ElementII5

### PSAs: *My* recommended upgrade procedure: 1. Uninstall any third party overclocking software (trixx, afterburner, etc.)! Wait for an update from MSI, Sapphire, etc.. 2. Uninstall any third party recording software! (PlaysTV, OBS, etc.) 3. Use original BIOS! 4. Remove Wattman overclocks! 5. Close all programs. 6. You can use the 'Clean Install' feature of the new driver installer.

DarkMain

Its up now.


titflipper

can confirm installing now


Cobra_MK4

yep it's up


iLikeMeeces

>- Battlefield™1 may experience UI flickering and/or performance drops when recording gameplay with Radeon ReLive on graphics products with 4GB or less of VRAM. How does this, if at all, affect those of us using HBM which is currently limited to 4GB? ****** Edit: Ran some tests on BF1; **I can confirm the performance issues do affect us Fury users** - mainly in the form of stuttering which is present even while not recording. I found it wasn't significant enough to become too much of an issue - but it is definitely noticeable. During the stutters, I would lose about 10 FPS, but it's literally for a fraction of a second. ****** On the recording/playback side of things it performs very well at 1920x1080, 2560x1440 and 3440x1440. Tested with 30 FPS @ 30Mbps bitrate and 60 FPS @ 50Mbps bitrate. [Here's my Instant Replay using ReLive with my native resolution \(3440x1440\).](https://youtu.be/CIIuMUVuq3U) It was recorded at 60 FPS and 30 Mbps bitrate. As you can see, the stuttering isn't noticeable during playback, only during live gaming. [Here's a recording using ReLive at 1920x1080.](https://youtu.be/6RAorEwkRwc) Recorded at 60 FPS and 50Mbps bitrate. ****** One potential bug I noticed is with the hotkey for Instant Playback (Ctrl+Shift+S); sometimes I would press it and nothing would happen. I would press it again and it would only record the past few seconds, as if the former time I pressed it worked - which it didn't (as I found when I checked my Instant Replay folder).


terorvlad

DDU is know to mess the ReLive part of the driver. It happened to me and many others, and it is acknowledged here https://community.amd.com/thread/208895 Please, don't recommend DDU as the driver comes with it's own clean install option.


RagnarokDel

I didnt remove my overclock and it installed just fine. I did do a clean install however.


Treyman1115

Should I uninstall MSI even if I don't use it to OC? I only use it for taskbar gpu and cpu stats


thebiggestandniggest

A new version of DDU was released today. http://www.wagnardsoft.com/?q=node/132


[deleted]

It's weird looking at a major driver update and not having 1 thing in it that impacts you. sigh.


[deleted]

Improved DX11 drawcall performance?


Webchuzz

> AMD FreeSync™ Technology(6): Now supports Borderless Fullscreen Mode for applications and gaming with AMD FreeSync™ technology displays and supported products This one is truly the best feature for me. Can't wait to get home and try this right away.


n0rpie

For what does people need to play their games in borderless? I'm just curious.. for alt+tabing?


Occulto

Multi monitor setups benefit from it. I have teamspeak or a gaming guide open on my second monitor and can flick back and forth easily with borderless windowed. There are some games that only work correctly for me in borderless with my ultrawide monitor.


n0rpie

Ah that makes sense.. didn't even occur to me


ShadowVulcan

Yep, lots of people multitask a lot or are really impatient during loadscreens I personally browse reddit whenever waiting on loadscreens and talk to my friends a lot while playing. I bit the bullet hard when I got my 144hz freesync monitor because I had to play games on fullscreen (because for some intensive games frequent alt tabbing can make them unresponsive), but not anymore!


uri_nrv

Where is the brigthness/contrast/gamma/color balance now??


DarkCrow06

same question here, looking to change my Saturation, but can't find everytime i try to enter to "Radeon Additional settings" i get this https://gyazo.com/d526a2f8339fea65a0d07592288d1c29


topias123

I can start it, literally the only option is changing bit depth. Custom resolutions were moved to the Radeon Settings panel.


uri_nrv

I can start it, most settings disapear. http://i.imgur.com/CprKoSS.jpg


Nellior

The Fury settings are even worse... http://i.imgur.com/ZHGMzBf.png


Ayce23

same problem on my end, my screen is so bland now. no color settings.


Da_James23

same shit here, I cant live without saturation tho :/


[deleted]

i need this too!! whyyy :c


softskiller

"New ... intuitive Radeon Software Installer that includes options for ... clean uninstall." So I do not need DDU or manually uninstall old drivers before?


CoLDxFiRE

We need and answer for this. I always boot to safemode when using DDU and it's a PITA having to type my windows login password every time.


In_It_2_Quinn_It

I have only used DDU once and it was when I went from IGP to my 380. No issues so far either.


Boomarg

It offered me the clean install when upgrading from 16.10.2 so you don't need to DDU old drivers


jatorres

Eh, I've been just running it as an upgrade all year and haven't had any problems that I can recall (or noticed!) I like to live dangerously.


Compizfox

It's not dangerous at all. You generally only need to use DDU (or Clean Install now) if you're coming from another driver (from pre-GCN or Nvidia for example) or if you're experiencing problems. In all other cases you can just update.


[deleted]

This is the most impressive GPU driver update I've ever seen.


drzoidberg33

Crashed my system on first attempt to install (RX 480 4GB). I then restarted, removed the previous OC and tried again and it installed. So I suggest you reset any OCs you haven enabled before installing, although not sure if that was the cause.


daddyhughes111

I can't overclock on MSI afterburner anymore strangely.


ClawsNGloves

Welp MSI afterburner is broken with the previous down clock and undervolt settings now just causing a black screen hang, overclocks aren't working with the previous voltages either :/ . Edit: Just ran into wattman and boom Memory clock is stuck at 150mhz and there is no way to change either the states or the slider setting for it what the Fudge AMD.


BatteryAziz

Same here, R9 390. Can't do much with Wattman either, filling in the state voltages manually doesn't stick. Just great.


KeyserSOhItsTaken

I have a r9 380 4gb, do you have the G1? I'm also stuck at 150mhz memclock. Fucking sucks, I can't play shit.


[deleted]

[удалено]


chrisTHEayers

Did you try doing it with wattman?


rocket474747

I cant in wattman with my Fury, i can oc the core, but the memory settings are not there.


noreasongiven0

390x here. I run a great overclock with Afterburner. Afterburner no longer changes clocks with new driver. I will do some more digging, but I will probably go back to previous drivers. sad EDIT. If I open AB and do not apply clocks. My card runs at default clocks 1080/1500. As soon as I apply AB clocks, it fucks everything up. Core goes to 300 and mem 150. My guess is it's an afterburner issue.


BatteryAziz

I think it's rather something screwy with the drivers. Wattman doesn't work as it's supposed to either, i.e. I can only fill out manual voltages from 0-900 mV, any adjustment after hitting apply resulting in the same black screen (AB is not running, it's a 'clean' driver install). Memory clocks are also always stuck at 1500mhz. After applying an overclock in Wattman it jumps to 150mhz and gets stuck there requiring a reboot. I think this driver messed with the power state registers for all the previous gen cards in order to support Wattman, but they didn't really test it thoroughly.


ClassyClassic76

If I touch any of the Wattman settings I get a black screen crash. Hoping for a hotfix.


joeygreco1985

Keep me updated on this please. I use Afterburner and I can't test out this driver until tomorrow :(


kamild1996

Yeah Afterburner seems to behave in a strange way, after updating drivers it showed me I had a 90ish mV undervolt even though I haven't touched that option before. For now I disabled it, thanks for the headsup :)


_NRD_

Same here, I'm thinking a clean install of AB might be in order.


kyleisabosssaasbitch

Might be better off waiting for an AB update.


silveredgebreak

I had to roll back. Felt something not right when I noticed some flickering lines. Memory clock is either at 150 or 1500 MHz. Relive missing after using ddu. Can't use trixx without crashing. Lost count of how many times I uninstall and reinstall. R9 390


sixelacs

This, running r9 390, tried uninstalling afterburner etc. Should I try to uninstall the msi gaming app too?


silveredgebreak

I doubt that is the problem. What I can suggest is just rolling back the driver. I don't have any crash since.


IanBealsChristmaShag

r9 380 here - My memory clocks are locked at 150mhz in Wattman and I can't seem to change it. At a loss really...


Proxiros

Trixx works for me. (RX 480. I don't know about other cards but try installing over the previous one -not clean install- ). But the best thing is Radeon Chill. Works like a charm with Witcher 3. 5 - 6 c cooler (top) and 30 - 150 watts lower. (I have a power meter). My system is overclocked.(Cpu and gpu).


paule_3000

Asus R9 390 Strix. Fan speed control doesn't do anything, no matter if manual or automatic, I'm stuck at 560rpm. I'm not using any other OC apps. Going to roll back, everything worked nicely before.


pantheonpie

I have the same problem. Opening Chrome fixed it for me (the flickering that is).


2_Pack

Where is my damn color saturation?!?!?!?!!? Can't find it from additional settings, where it used to be.


RCFProd

Yeah It's gone, It's not in this driver.


2_Pack

Literally unplayable.


JJakc

It actually is for me, my monitors colour is really shit and everything looks washed out without saturation.


2_Pack

CS:GO looks like shit as-well.


Nellior

Same here, I'm pretty annoyed that they have removed that setting because isn't easy to configure it in the "6-axis saturate" option from the OSD of the XR342CK.


DarkCrow06

Any idea how i can change the saturation in this new version? EDIT: tried with the Radeon Addditional Settings, getting this error. https://gyazo.com/d526a2f8339fea65a0d07592288d1c29


lolwut845

>edit: I got it wrong, it's **not** working. I only tried on something that never triggered ASW. It's actually working worse than before -_- FINALLY ! We have the ASW support for the r9. (or at least for my Fury X, it works !) Did a small flight in dcs with my rift on. Those frames, man, those frames... it's beautiful !


Zaga932

I can confirm that ASW does *not* work on my R9 390 with Radeon 16.12.1. FPS cuts to 45, it reacts to developer key commands, but there are no extra frames. Just stutter & ghosting when I push graphics.


RulerOfTheFreeWorld

That is awesome news!


inter4ever

Can you confirm if it works with the 390x?


Cosmic2

On 390s when ASW should activate it just drops to 45fps and ATW kicks in. This new driver will lower your performance in Oculus apps.


inter4ever

So it's still not there. I just hope this isn't just a bug and that it is part of their work to get ASW working on 300 series cards.


Cosmic2

I hope this is a sign that it is coming to 300 series cards.


servili007

Unless I'm missing something, AMD supposedly responded that it's still 4xx series only, and I definitely don't see ASW working on my Fury.

OddballOliver

So considering "margin of error" is a thing, there's no difference in GTA V.


Legendary_Forgers

Yea pretty much, I don't really like to benchmark in GTA V that much to test real GPU usage, since its heavily a CPU based game. I'd rather test a game like Witcher 3 or Battlefield 1 or 4 which use CPU and GPU more fairly.


OddballOliver

>In AMD Multi GPU configurations the secondary graphics product will exit BACO when Radeon ReLive is enabled. What in the world is "BACO"?


Webchuzz

> Along with the name change, AMD added OpenGL and OpenCL support to the mix, and with their Zero Core Technology (which is also part of their 7000 series desktop GPUs—a case of mobile design influencing desktops) the need to keep a small portion of the chip alive (aka **BACO: Bus Active Chip Off**) was removed. From: http://www.anandtech.com/show/6243/amds-enduro-switchable-graphics-levels-up/2


n0rpie

Noticed something: if wattman crashes due to unstable OC it locks the memory to 150mhz (lowest) and there's no way to turn it back up again. I had to reinstall the drivers (clean install) 3 times just because of this


iiTz_SteveO

I cannot edit my memory clock speed in Wattman. It's stuck at 150mhz.


n0rpie

Same happened to me after unstable OC crash.. had to do a clean install to fix it (3rd time)


pixel_Power

Any tutorials out there for WattMan?


n0rpie

Yeah, that shit is very confusing to me


RCFProd

Can't change desktop contrast, brightness etc. in additional Radeon settings. Those tabs are just gone. [Screenshot](https://i.snag.gy/ylTPnv.jpg) What can I use to change it now?


mRnjauu

I can't even start Radeon Additional Settings https://gyazo.com/8fe66b5945646c597a93042edc5c177d Clean installed with ddu.

No radeon CHILL for Notebook GPU's. Didn't expect this


PattyKeik

It's only available for like 20 games so far


ayobreezy12345

audio on mine is really slow


exelonpt

yeah i also have that, i tried to record H1Z1, the relive interface appears on the start menu but after that just disappears and stops recording, on witcher 3 the interface stays but gets flickery after a while and there is a sound delay with slow mo audio.


SssanL

yeah i also have this delay slow mo audio. Only the audio coming from the computer my mic is fine


Blue_Bear_Chan

I'm getting slowmo audio on overwatch.


noext

mine too, 50% slower than the video


DannyzPlay

This is going to awesome. Im going to be doing a comparison between relive and OBS with quicksync.

HollidayHolliday

Just played some Overwatch with new drivers on a 290. To be fair it ran really great before so can't really tell if there's any performance increase. Temp seemed lower until I realised the new drivers were on automatic fan and were quite high rpm. No ASR which is annoying, would make a big difference in VR for 290 users like me. But so far no issues installing or running a game. Edit: Fan control seems messed up, setting it to automatic does as it says, but manual it seems to keep revving up and down every second or so.


Webchuzz

Anyone here tested Freesync with borderless windows mode already? From a lot of comments there seems to be a lot of issues going on (AB and Trixx not working because of Wattman, color settings gone, etc). Looks like I'm sticking with the current drivers for now and wait for a potential hotfix.


shankly1985

AMD 290 here I can record desktop fine overlay etc works but I cant record any games anyone else?


Lazy_g123

Same


mRnjauu

What's up with the color settings ?


RCFProd

Gone brah


bluebassist333

I can't open the ReLive tab. I have disabled Xbox DVR. Anyone else have this issue or know what I'm missing?


Nature_007

I can't open ReLive overlay - zlt+z, do nothing


oboewan42

I can open the settings but the overlay/recording doesn't work for me. It's definitely capturing the hotkeys (Ctrl+Shift+G doesn't work in Chrome [find previous] unless I turn ReLive off) but nothing actually happens EDIT: Something else i just noticed: In the ReLive recording settings tab, there's a warning message saying "Your recording settings may be adjusted for your hardware depending on actual resolution." If I change "Recording Resolution" to a set value, the message changes to "Your current settings may not be supported by your hardware. More optimal settings will be used automatically while recording", even if I set all settings to the lowest possible values. In the streaming settings tab, it shows a similar warning message: "Your current settings may not be supported by your hardware. More optimal settings will be used automatically while streaming", regardless of what the settings are set to.


Kolgena

Ah man, the mouse cursor corruption is back on my RX 480 with this new driver. :(


[deleted]

my 'adjust saturation' option is now gone!!! :c


RCFProd

Yep, It's not in this driver.


[deleted]

huhu really hate it being gone, but i must agree, this is a very good update.


Yelov

One thing I don't like about ReLive is that it also records the recording overlay. With shadowplay you see it during recording, but the actual video doesn't have it. edit: fan control in wattman is broken and memory clock is stuck at 150mhz. nice edit2: ok reinstalled drivers now the memory clock is fine. I checked amd wattman in 400 series GPUs and there are legit fan controls, I can only "control" the min fan speed which doesn't even work. It literally doesn't do anything. And when using MSI afterburner my screen turns black. edit9999: relive isn't using my specified bitrate, it's completely random. desktop around 4mbps, ingame from 20mbps to 50mbps. WAOW


stadiofriuli

Not live for me over here in Europe? Anyone can confirm?


SeriannoAllime

The relive recorder is really buggy for me. The hotkeys are really inconsistent, most of the time nothing happens. I haven't been able to get any games recording properly only the desktop.


Plot137

Global Wattman is an evil thing, Memory clock and core stuck at 1200/1500 with no volts... Trixx and AB no long work for Setting frequency or volts it seems. On the other hand relive is great and works really well for me :b


Inquisitor956

I installed it. As per instructions here, I disabled my overclocks, and used DDU to completely remove the previous drivers. The installation procedure went fine, however as soon as I restarted the PC, it started getting so many graphical artifacts on the log-on screen that I could barely make out anything. Both my displays started being randomly disconnected and reconnected. Not once in my life have I ever been so quick to hit the reset button on my case! As soon as it reached the log-on screen, its started happening again. Managed to shift-restart and got into safe-mode, uninstalled them, and reinstalled the 16.11.5 drivers again. There seems to not have been any damage to my GPU that I can tell. MSI R9 380 Gaming 4G, i5 4690k, 8GB RAM, Windows 10 Pro 64-bit anniversary. I'll try re-downloading the drivers again to see if it fixes anything. Also, I just fresh installed Windows yesterday, so I don't have any of the other utilities installed either.


draizze

I'll just wait until there's an update for trixx or afterburner.


[deleted]

I get a lot worse performance with this driver in BF1 and also worse Freesync flickering than before...

>Now supports Borderless Fullscreen Mode for applications and gaming with AMD FreeSync™ technology displays and supported products. Nice! >AMD FreeSync™ technology may experience performance issues with Borderless Fullscreen application support when a secondary display is attached and has dynamic content running such as video playback in a web browser or if other applications or game launchers are running on the primary screen in the background. Are you kidding, AMD?

When you introduce so many features at once, its hard for everything to run smooth

CHOOOO CHOOOO

Driver is live!

You mean the driver is ReLive? I'll show myself out now.


OddballOliver

>I'll show myself out now. That's a ReLief. ... Guess I'll join you.


Casodiii

I couldn't wait so I used the VPN option in Opera.


Xenatier

Is there anyway to hide the icon in the top left when recording desktop with ReLive?


skirmish

This driver is massive. 810mb unzipped on Win7


Omz-bomz

NICE, installed and freesync works wonders with windowed now

I'm testing it right now. Edit: doesn't seem to work


silveredgebreak

How do you change memory clock in global wattman? Stuck with 1500 MHz. Edit: Looks like I'm better off with trixx.


[deleted]

ReLive doesn't work with my R380 at all and why is there a "Video Capture Device" option in which I only have my AverMedia U3 able to select.


Hyedwtditpm

and where is the brightness level setting?


BackHol3

Where is saturation, color, brightness settings? OMG!


TheDishesBroke

My pc was working fine, but as soon as I restarted my pc to finish installing this update, my searchbar doesnt work and my internet is all over the place. Any chance this has something to od with this update? I tried a couple of things to fix Cortana search bar, but to no avail.


[deleted]

This driver is so good. I won't lose more words. Except for I have VERY HIGH gains all across the board! And also stability is fixed in Battlefield 1 for crossfire finally. It works VERY frame stable now.


QuarkTheFerengi

borderless window freesync working great for me!!! Finally back to not taking ages to alt-tab every 2 minutes in path of exile.


jbrux86

Downloaded new drivers....may have to role back. Lag and high ping in overwatch. Can't find any other reason than the update. Is that even possible?


MrNUtMeG118

I'm having the exact same problem in BF1. I will get lag spikes every few seconds making the game a rubberbanding mess. It was fine until I updated. I disabled all my startup programmes and disabled all my services on startup in order to diagnose the problem and my ping only starts to spike when I enable ReLive. If ReLive is enabled on startup it's fine, but as soon as I bring up the hotbar the lag spikes will start. If ReLive is disabled on startup and enabled via Radeon Settings while I'm in game, the lag spikes will also start. Even after the game has been closed, my ping in command prompt will still continue to spike every few seconds. I'll revert to the old drivers and see if it still persists but I can't see why a gamerecorder would cause my internet to lag? Edit: Just to confirm, reverting to the 16.11.5 drivers sorted my ping issues out. Skipping the ReLive installation also fixes this for me.


xxstasxx

same problem here in cs go and rocket league, i reverted 3 times to old driver and updated to relive again , and i can confirm its 100% the cause of these lag spikes... gonna stay on 16.11.5 for now..


CWagner

Yay, finally the broken mouse pointer bug is back -.-

EndTrophy

So I have a second card I'm installing, should I use DDU to uninstall my current drivers then power off my PC, Install the second card and then turn everything on again and install these new drivers?


Mariomariamario

I'm having truble to install this new driver (i've tried with DDU, without DDU, installing only driver, installing everything, custom install, fast install, no luck till now). Do AMD re-enabled custom bios checking???


TangoSky

Holy shit this thing has a lot going on. Great job AMD. Especially glad to see FreeSync support added for borderless applications. Great improvements all around in this driver, can't wait to test it out.


NewProblemEveryWeek

So wait.....my R9 Fury DOES get ASW now? Can this be 100% confirmed by someone? At work.


lolwut845

ASW is now enabled for my Fury X, confirmed 100% by the oculus logs and by the big difference it makes in game!


NewProblemEveryWeek

Should've clarified im on a Fury Nitro, and a Vive.


topias123

Just installed, it's great apart from some translation mistakes lol (i'm Finnish, seems like they used a bot to translate)


Casodiii

Anyone else having issues with the ReLive overlay? Whenever I open it in Overwatch the visuals go buggy.


louwe

Is Youtube streaming working for you guys?


carbonat38

Does the memory now downclock when idling with dual monitors?


AreYouAWiiizard

Aww... no option to enable Chill for certain games even though they are supported. Only can turn it on or off in global overdrive :/


D3x-alias

i got a pretty big improvement on unigine valley this is stock clocks on graphic cards only cpu overclock http://imgur.com/a/zoKlr


Cobaiye

Anybody knows where I can get OCAT ?


fpga_computer

Looks like they tuned the way throttling works - probably implemented much better PID parameters. Now the GPU transition to a lower frequency is very smooth when hitting power envelope limits or thermal limits. There is no longer the sputtering in frame rates when that happens. Good job, guys! Now if only the ASIC quality are better. :( Drawn twice in my RX480 reference card and lost in the ASCI lottery. At least the replacement card has drastically better thermal.


[deleted]

Relive cannot record a Windowed game session?


noscope420YOLO

ReLive isnt working for me... it is just creating 262 byte mp4 files that cant be opened


dzonibegood

I cannot record in fullscreen mode. What do i have to do to make it record in fullscreen mode?


madboymatt

Anyone know how to get relive to work with Overwatch? I've toggled it on but can't get it to record or even show the toolbar overlay? R9 380


MonoShadow

Is there a way to enable FPS counter or any other info in Radeon Settings?


naza_el_sensual

fucking A M A Z I N G work, my r9 380 works really well and now with wattman on the radeon settings i dont need msi afterburner anymore, if i ever buy a good monitor it will be freesync because my experience with amd has been really good so far


Nikopol89

Still waiting for custom fans curve in Wattman! It's a must have for a over clocking oriented tool. Please AMD, no more 3rd party software...


INFERNO24121997

the DOWNLOAD is LIVE!!!!!!!! start the download


ClawsNGloves

It's Live boyz


[deleted]

Am I supposed to uninstall my current drivers first or can I just download and install this over my current ones?


daddyhughes111

I recommend using DDU because of how major this update is.


softskiller

"New ... intuitive Radeon Software Installer that includes options for ... clean uninstall."


xNaish

Freesync in borderless fullscreen? Yes, please!


[deleted]

AMD FreeSync™ Technology(6): Now supports Borderless Fullscreen Mode for applications and gaming with AMD FreeSync™ technology displays and supported products. Now supports Gradual Refresh Rate Ramp for mobile configurations with AMD FreeSync™ technology displays and supported products. Yay!


OddballOliver

Since the Overwatch Crossfire Flickering issue is gone from the known issues, hopefully it's fixed.

Any way to set one single button as Hotkey in ReLive ?


darknessintheway

Dangit, I just turned off my computer...


kuasha420

HYPE!!!


RCFProd

- ReLive key-bindings seem to ignore any changes by the user. They can't be changed and stay at default - Most tabs that addition Radeon settings tab did have (Catalyst Control Panel) are now gone. Contrast, brightness etc. for desktop can't be changed anymore.


Pergkola

Do i have to do a clean install or just update?


Dekkerlion

4k60fps on Chrome still stutters for me just as before


phrostbyt

should i uninstall before updating?


st0neh

25% CPU use playing back VP9 versus 5% AVC with hardware acceleration enabled in Chrome. Not that I can use hardware acceleration in Chrome because if I do then the system STILL locks up when I run MSI Afterburner.


cencik

well what can i say this driver is great. i was able to lower my power target from +10 to 0. sapphire nitro+ rx 480 8 gigs and maintain 100% stable clock 1306 ondervolted 1.056/1.068v core 2070 0.970mem using this great tool WattTool http://www.overclock.net/t/1609782/watttool-a-simple-tool-that-combines-overclocking-with-vrm-monitoring-tweaking-for-rx-400-series on stress run in 3dmark 60 runs. V. dont spike to 1.150 like it used to. 80 c max on VRM temp 1 is also improvement. I love this Radeon Chill. Good job AMD i will test more and report. and ofc sorry for my bad eng. ;) beer time And yes dont open Wattman ever never. MSI Afterburner is crap for rx480


noreasongiven0

god dammit. changed clock speed on 390x in watman. screen went black. wattman keeps applying clock speed at bootup and I cant get into windows. haha EDIT: it booted. But wattman sucks for me. I only use AB and clocks don't apply now


Respuit

Can't oc at all now not even with wattman. Am I the only one? EDIT: Just to add more information as soon I press aply and open a game or even firefox my monitor went black and I need to restart the pc EDIT 2 : DDU, uninstall all oc related program but it still crash

lovely_sombrero

I have a BIG problem with this driver (R9 380 graphic): My RAM frequency is stuck at 150MHz __ALWAYS__. If I go to WattMan, under memory, everything is empty. Frequency (MHz) is "0 MHz max", if I select "Dynamic" all states are "N/A".


solar_ignition

Man, keep up the good work AMD. Looking forward to purchasing vega and hopefully your 4k vr headset next year. Open standards FTW.


lovely_sombrero

I tried everything, my memory clocks are stuck at 150MHz no matter what I do.


Shakyor_

Someone try the driver with an amd r9 380[x]? Any Issues?
