    Catalyst 15.3.1 performance

    Hi folks,

    I haven't bough the game yet (for obvious reasons), but I wanted to ask if Catalyst 15.3.1 beta improved performance.
    If you tried it, i'd appreciate if you can post your impressions below.

    Thanks!

    Not quite what you asked but I have no performance issues with 14.12 (Omega) drivers.

    i don't think there has been an official release as of yet for the new AMD drivers

    i did see a leaked beta release was posted on the AMD forums yesterday but i think that link no longer works as AMD needed to iron out some bugs in the beta driver

    more info can be found there

    In my experience, drivers can only do so much. I mean, you can polish a turd but at the end of the day you what you are left with is a turd. The main problem with UBI is not so much of how bad the initial game is... the biggest issue is how much more damage they do to it with every new update they roll out.

    For a Campaign Player this is not so bad because you can stop updating after 1 or 2 patches but for those of you wanting to multiplay, this is detrimental.I feel for you but after a while you gotta ask yourself... do I deserve what I get for not doing my research before I purchase a UBI game?

    again YOU DO NOT EVEN OWN THE GAME

    its worked damn near perfect for me since launch ..you just hate UBISOFT for some weird reason and post troll posts everywhere

    Drivers do help ... and sometimes Drivers break things Educate yourself on how a PC works ........ and what Drivers really DO

    or better yet go back to your CONSOLE

    don't wanna believe it look at the facts

    http://support.amd.com/en-us/kb-arti...easeNotes.aspx


    • Far Cry 4 performance optimizations
      - Up to 50% performance increase over Catalyst™ 14.11.1 beta in single GPU scenarios with Anti-Aliasing enabled.

    and thats on an OLD driver so do not say drivers do not help till you know the FACTS

    and the FACT IS you admitted you do not own FAR CRY 4

    I figured I'd give the leaked 15.3.1 drivers a shot. Hopefully the WHQL version will be better, as performance has dropped massively for me. With or without CF enabled, I get around 23 FPS when I usually average around 50 FPS with a single card enabled.

    I'd definitely hold off for the official version.
