yup i'm verry happy with them also :)
Are u having issues with BF BC 2 and 11.1a?
Screen flickering sometimes and ALT + TAB is almost impossible now... =/
10.12 also has these issues... 10.11 is the most stable for me.
nope :) i have 0 issues with bfbc 2 / vietnam and ALT + TAB works just fine for me
and fps even increased by around 10-12 for min/avg/max
Great.
I hate Ati right now. Missing my 5870 already.
Do u have slow loadings on BC2 also? It was perfect and fast without Crossfire.
Ran through a bunch of benches and games with these as a fresh install on a fresh OS and had no issues in any game.
CrossFire 6950's flashed to 6970's at 950 core 1450 mem all at 2560 x 1600.
Had issues in Fallout 3 with 10.12 and now I don't, not sure if it was an OS thing or a driver thing though since both are new.
Think i'll try a fresh OS install... =/
No loading issues with my setup, maybe a second or 2 slower than 10.5a's... Not enough to worry about, especially with the FPS increase!!
I lied. Fallout 3 still crashing, wtf.Quote:

oh and btw i haven't had any issues with any of the drivers i have tried , a fresh install sounds like a good idea
Well, I tried the 10 series drivers, but was on 10.5a's because thats what got the best frames in BFBC2, then went straight to the 11.1a's... All the other drivers were a dramatic decrease in FPS for me...
AMD Catalyst 11.1a Hotfix (8.82.2) Win7 x86/x64 -19.01.2010
DriverVer=01/19/2011, 8.820.2.0000

Come on ATI... don't force me to go to the green side... =/
Seems like the only difference is the CCC version. Still, I'll go ahead and add the link to OP. Thanks! :up:Quote:

And Huge FPS Drop while loading a map does not matter seeing as you cant play while loading a map.
The last good driver Nvidia had was 258.96 . haha.. With anything higher, my screen blips/strobes on every restart or shutdown lol... And the 260.xx's made DII LOD unplayable during battle. It was funny to see the FPS go up and down as my LV 20 Poison Nova spead out. :up:Quote:

I tried the 11.1 (8.82.2 beta)....Simply put AMD should contract out their driver development department, they F...ing suck at drivers!
I have a new 6950 (not hacked to 6970) with Win-7 64U, Eventually running these drivers my screen goes blank, loss of video signal. The 6950 fan goes to 100% and I have to power off, this will happen within 15 min or less. Upon restart, I get the Windows did not shut down properly indication, but I start Windows in normal mode again.....I think I got the BSOD, but did not see it due to loss of video. This happens again and again with these drivers. Removed 11.1a and.....
Running 10.12a now, that problem gone. Well, it's not gone it just took longer. Guess I put the old 4870X2 back in and see if I need to RMA this 6950 back.
I know it was a beta, I don't need to hear that.
Waiting for the next POS drivers from AMD.
UPDATE: 4870x2 back in with CAT 10.8, looks like an RMA to Newegg. Something must have been overheating in the 6950, always repeatable and always <15 min after reboot.
Weird, I used all three leaked versions of 11.1a with my Cayman, no issues...
Tried Driver Sweeper after uninstalling and rebooting?
zalbard, what VGA are u using?
Two 6970s (real ones).
Don't have BFBC2 so can't test it, sorry.
