Has anyone tried these to see if you can see the performance?
After installing 182.05, my framerate in games and benchmarks increased overall by about 5%. BUT dropped 40 frames in I-Fluid, and the screensaver felt like it was showing pictures instead of video ( 1 frame every 5 seconds ).
but oh well thats good enough for me
EDIT: sry, 180.70 OC get the same results as 182.05 not overclocked :slap:
Funny thing is I've played with those drivers couple days already without any problems, but not anymore.
