Working great. Had a 2 hour long BF4 session. I don't know if they are faster or not. But, they do work.

just tested this driver BF4 + mantle still have huge fps drops. Flatout 2 still have so called DX9 corruptions. everything else is fine, this is WHQL driver.
How is the BF4 performance using DirectX? Still have the memory leak crap? I'm stuck on 13.12...

Skyrim bad flickering. Unplayable. Never seen it before like that.
Just finished playing some Skyrim with these drivers, ran great. Also played some Grim Dawn, Van Helsing and TF2, all ran fine.

When 14.4 gave me about 85-90c (2033 REDUX) (With OC and raised PL & vCore obviously or it would be much lower) and 14.8 push it up to about 93c (95c being max) then yea it's quite a big deal
Means its using the gpu harder, can only be a good thing squeezing out more perf

as far as i know its GCN 1.0 issue (and maybe GCN 1.1) GCN 2.0 is free of it, and before-GCN-generations also have no that corruptions.
HD7000/M, HD8000M and some new R cards = GCN 1.0 R9 290X, 290, 260X, 265 + Kaveri APUs = GCN 1.1. There is no GCN 2.0

I've just installed them after removing 14.7 RC3 using DDU v13.0.0.3 and everything went butter smooth, neither BSOD nor any other sort of errors on my machine. I'll be testing them with games soon.

First driver since 14.4 that actually works fine with Eyefinity and seems to be fine everywhere else too, albeit hotter than 14.4
Ive had no issues with eyefinity . Though I have only used every driver since 14.6 with eyefinity cause of mixed mode eyefinity. Im running 4 monitors off a single 7950 as well.

I spoke too soon Back to 14.4 for me, I think for the remaining time I own an AMD card, pretty sick of them asking us to report bugs, then doing sweet FA about them, especially after the length of the form they want you to fill in each time
They were doing great with updates and fixes one the average. And after 14.6 it hasnt been worth a damn. Sorry your having the issues mate. It sucks. Guess I am just lucky with any issues that I faced being easily fixed or a workaround. I havent noticed the heat issues alot of people have had. Im running my card on AIO Water cooler with air cooling on the vrm. Vrms never go above 60c and card never goves above 50c with a 1200rpm single 120 fan.

Ah Im fine with 14.4, no problems at all, temps and stability are great, performance is great, I just think its a joke that they release all these new drivers, beta or otherwise, and not one bug from many reports and builds ago have been addressed or fixed or even looked at What's the point in a bug reporting form if no-one fixes anything reported Loads of people are stuck on 13.12, can't even move to the 14.x builds
I do agree. I see lots of bugs go unfixed for months. I wouldnt be on newest drivers if I didnt have to rely on mixed mode eyefinity. Wish I had 3x1080p instead of 1 1080p and 2 1208x1024. Ive test 14.7rc3 on HD 5450, HD 5770, HD 7850, 7950 and really had no issues. Different machines running Win 7 and Win 8. Only bug that I have seen still since 2010 that I have ever experienced in the HDMI audio bug where on HD 5xxx cards you have to unplug the cable and plug it back in in desktop for HDMI audio to work.

Yeah I have a 7950 and all of the 14.xx drivers have given me issues I have Been stuck on the 13.12 drivers for ages now. Most of my issues have been with KCP (MPC-HC & MadVR) anything above 13.12 and playback is choppy I get higher render times and dropped frames where as when I go back to 13.12 and it is all good. I have also had higher temps with no performance gain which is an issue for the setup I have an programs I use. And I Agree, I try the beta drivers in full knowledge they may have issues but I report the issues in hope that they will be fixed for whql so I can use them and to be stuck on 13.12 which is what 7-9 months old, it seems to me that they do not look at or care about the feedback/bug reports. I use DDU / Drivercleaner.net /ccleaner to remove the drivers and then check for amd/ati folders to ensure all is removed correctly. I know peoples mileage varies as well, as some have similar setups and no issues or different issues completely. For me I have always used ATI/AMD but the last few cards I have had they seem to have dropped focus almost straight away as soon as a new card comes out, i will be looking more seriously at a Green card when I have my next build.

Nope. Not for me, at least. When prompted to choose what you want to install, video\audio drivers are missing: http://i1220.photobucket.com/albums/dd448/ScarecrowDM/148_zpsc00035f4.png~original Well, I'll stick with 14.4. I'm not planning changing my W8 install until W9 comes out. I'm not really worried, though. Everything is working fine with 14.4.
