Jstn7477Like, nearly all of them? Team Fortress 2, Guild Wars 2, etc. are unbearably choppy and littered with high latency frames until I turn CFX off and restart the computer. I have a 7970 and 7950 crossfired with two bridges.
I've had that problem too, but it was present in all the 13.11 beta drivers for me, not just beta6.
Prima.VeraAnother useless crappy application. No worries. You can uninstall it.
Jurassic1024During install select Custom Installation and uncheck Raptr.
I know that i can uncheck to not install it. What I don't like is that I have to make effort to uncheck it when it should be optional, and it also adds bloat to the size of the driver package download.

^^ How is 7870 a legacy card? :laugh:

I don't use Win8.

Aren't those multiplayer?
You have a pc-specific issue. Maybe your 120Hz monitor....
Or probably you forgot to disable ULPS.

For instance Dark Messiah Might and Magic (DX9c Source), Crysis Warhead over DX9 , Mirror's Edge (DX9) Need for Speed Shift (DX9), games i just tested before hitting "submit reply" button. Other than flickering in reflections in NFS:Shift (that bug is back again), which is a game specific issue- there seems no DX9/crossfire problem as such.
