AMD/ATI driver issues?

[Johnny Three Fingers]

Dose anyone have AMD or ATI cards that are having issues? I noticed most people that appear to run ok are using Intel and Nivida cards. Wanted to know if anyone had played with some drivers to see if it made a difference or not.

I am having issues with shutter/fps drops use AMD/ATI

The real issue - freezes. Im playing with 30-70 fps on med-high with my 7970, bad but playable. But 4 sec freeze when zombie try to bite me is unacceptable.

295x is crossfire. You can't be surprised you have issues.
Should have got a normal, high end single gpu card.
Anyways, low fps is a issue shared by Nvidia users too and they even have a new driver for Dying Light.
lol at your overclock too. 4.3? It can do 4.6-4.8 no problem.

I could I just dont really need to OC to 4.6

I do have a High end Single gpu that I can use I just use this card because it was a gift.
(If you consider a GTX 780 Ti a normal high end card )

I did see all the post with the Nvidia users, just not many with amd.

That's intresting to know that Nivida users have a driver update though, I havn't seen anything on the AMD end.

If you think you don't need it, then why bother with 4.3? It turbos to 4.2. Your overclock is silly.

that just what it came with I just never bother to mess with it.

Yea I know I need to get a new board

Minimum is I7 4790, but for 295x2 - Intel Core I7-5960X will be the best choise. All other CPUs - will be "bottle necks"

Bro, also i have same issues with AMD R9-290x with latest 14.12 Omega drivers and I7-4770 CPU.

Game doesn't effectively using all of CPU cores, and GPU core running at 40-50% of load. Same issues were in AC: Unity. Wait for the new drivers and game updates.

I thought about swaping the 290x2 with the 780 TI just to see how it would run but, not sure if it wold make a difference.

You can disable the 2nd 290x in your 295x. Just create an application profile for this game and disable CFX using CCC.
