Integrating the CAPs into the driver didn't last long then did it, was only the one driver wasn't it :P

i kinda figured that. they put them in the betas because they are up to the minute WHQL requires a couple weeks, so anything new after submission would have to be separate.

So 13.4 official or 13.5 Beta - which are better for HD 7850?

While the 13.2 beta3 appeared to run great on my system, my vidcard kept downclocking in intense games. With this driver the clocks stay where I've set them, so that's better. Not much slower than previous driver either. So I'm gonna keep these for a while and see if anything comes up with other games.

After installing this new driver, I've lost the sound in my Smart TV when using the HDMI connecting the PC and TV. There are just images, no sounds. Someone knows what can be? Thanks 🙂
If you are having the same problem that some of us have then, yes, there is a workaround. But if this is the first time you are having a problem with HDMI audio then I think your problem might be different. So, what drivers have you used recently and what files are you playing and what programs have you used to play them? Here's a link to the fix I used. http://forums.guru3d.com/showpost.php?p=4582621&postcount=52 Here's a link to a page with me talking about my issue. I have lots to say, and in several posts. 🙂 It's another forum but I'm Babel-17 there as well. http://forum.beyond3d.com/showthread.php?t=63433

Is 13.4 any good for HP laptops with the dreadful Radeon HD 7690M XT ???? Thnx !! would really apperciate any feedback from people that tested this driver or any other that works for them.
any problem with your current driver? 13.4 is 13.3 beta 3 anyway.

the thing is, i have this fu*ked up graphic card, everyone who has it knows what i'm talking about. I tested so many drivers (leshcat's sometimes do the trick), the official ones never worked. I tried this one yesterday, it was stable but horrible FPS. my intel was doing better LOL. I'm running on the 13.5 BETA2 and it's working like a charm, great FPS, etc.. Haven't crashed so far. I might however test 13.4 Leshcat's later if it starts crashing.
I owned similar gpu, HD6770M which then rebadged to HD7690M XT. From my experienced, only 2 things can slow down this gpu below HD3000 level. 1. CPU throttling. 2. Stucked at 2d clock, 400mhz/800mhz. For the 1st problem, i use ThrottleStop and for 2nd problem i need to replug the power cable, make sure its done with battery plugged in. I use MSI Afterburner to monitor the GPU all the times.

I remember using MSI Aferburner & i cudn't really overclock. I just downloaded ThrottleStop but to be honest, i have no idea what to do with it... any advices maybe? 😀
If your temperature is good, tick Multiplier and set it to Turbo, then turn On ThrottleStop. If temperature is bad, set it to your Base multiplier or tick Disable Turbo. For MSI Afterburner, close and reopen it when u start playing game/using that AMD GPU. Here's how to enable the OSD and extra goodies in MSI Afterburner so you can monitor the GPU performance in game. The guide is old but u get the point.. i hope. Download the latest beta in MSI/Guru3D website.

Thanks, been holding out since 12.11 so I'm gonna go with these now I reckon it's time for an upgrade.
data/avatar/default/avatar10.webp
Define good? 😀 i think i'm constantly overheating ...65°C isn't good , is it? max is like 95°C The thing is i couldn't overclock because i got 7690M XT (@800MHz NOT 900)
Over 90c is bad, disabling TurboBoost will significantly drop your max temperature. Try this, click Setting at Msi Afterburner main window and then enable Unofficial Overclocking Mode with PowerPlay support. Close Afterburner and run some game. While in game, Alt+Tab back to desktop and reopen Afterburner.

Guys, I'd like to ask something... I installed 13.4 whql on a clean, fresh Windows installation within Device Manager... I pointed the "Update Drivers" to a folder with extracted 13.4 files, and everything went fine -as it seems. Now, I'd like to know, is this the same way when you get the update from Windows Update? If I try to uninstall and tick the box "Delete the driver software for this device" will it do the job fine? I mean, will I have a clean machine, since there is no way to uninstall from "Programs and Features" as with all other programs?...
https://forums.guru3d.com/data/avatars/m/232/232504.jpg
You should be able to run Catalyst Install Manager and express remove everything to be sure. But doing the delete driver software should clear a good bit, if not all of the files created.
That's the problem, mate. Besides the clean driver that Windows is handling through Device Manager, I'd like as less AMD code on my PC as possible. Anyway, thank you. As it seems it's working pretty fine and zero issues so far.
