guys, how about the idle 2d clocks? is it still 150/300?

Moved cards around to see if it was driver or bios; it's driver. 5870 though.

Loosenut · Feb 17, 2011

Yes, idle clocks are 157/300

Correct me if I'm wrong but if it's the driver + some hardware, then it's a DRIVER problem, you can make excuses, and debate what the meaning of "is" is, but it's a driver problem, at least AMD has proven that they slowly can make drivers that suck less, but all together still FAIL.

I wouldn't say that at all, after all just how many varients of a pc is there?

...

Shit, technically more possible combinations of PC parts than there are phone numbers

Do you think it's possible to test on every possible system?

Do you think it's their responsibility to do that?

They do what they can, and update the drivers and bugfix them when errors are reported how ever the fact still stands that there are TO many varations of hardware to make a driver work 100% with every set up.

@bim27142

Please let me know if you have the Morphological Filtering and Tessellation Control settings available in your CCC since you have a 5770 just like me.

Thanks a lot.

Athlonite · Feb 17, 2011

I have an 5770 and yup morph and tess are there aswell as an new ticky box

xsever · Feb 17, 2011

@ Athlonite

You are lucky I guess. From which driver did you update? 11.1a or 11.1 or 10.12 or what?
I am trying to see if the driver that was installed before 11.2 matters and if you installed over it or you did a Driver Sweep install?

Thanks,

Fatal · Feb 17, 2011

I noticed that the sky would turn black on some of the maps with these drivers. Then game also ran like crap. I modified the cgf file with some tweaks was better will have to check again and see if I still have problems.

fullinfusion · Feb 18, 2011

Tested and working better then the last Hot fix driver on the HIS 6950

I had a crash after the first install. I decided to take a short cut but it didnt pay off.

Follow Erockers CCC Un-install guide!

It may be old, but it still does the trick

xsever · Feb 18, 2011

I tried re-installing again and many reboots and I can't get Morphological Filtering and Tessellation control in CCC for the life of me.

Bad experience with these drivers. I'll keep tinkering until 11.3 comes out I guess.

Did you follow Erockers guide to a tee?

Also download the latest Driver sweeper 2.8.5 and run it in safe mode after removing the ccc in the uninstall manager.
You also need to check SHOW HIDDEN FOLDERS in the control panel to delete all ati/amd folders...

I have discovered a new bug. If I move my mouse cursor to the top right of the screen, my system LAGS HARD. This is pretty much making anything having to do with large mouse movements unplayable and is starting to get on my nerves.

No for me . Working better than I could have imagined . Just totally the best !

Yeah I find that too, but just for a quick second then its all good... but after running some games and benches its a step up.

I followed the guide as well and still had problems.....I ended up simply uninstalling CCC from cCleaner and it and every part of it was gone FINALLY!
Driver sweeper just wasn't cutting it....cCleaner worked though

Thanks,

10.10e to 10.12 to 11.1a to 11.2 in that order no uninstall before hand straight over the top

PopcornMachine · Feb 18, 2011

I haven't had any problems with any of the releases lately.

Only thing was the version not displaying properly, which turned out to be informational and had nothing to do with functionality.

My normal procedure is to run the built-in uninstall and then install the new package.

Running 11.2 with no problems.

So this bug is on 11.2 driver too? I had it on 11.1. I tough't it's fixed in 11.2 :ohwell:

duke_srg · Feb 18, 2011

That damn bug was "introduced" in catalyst 10.12. Drivers release 8.791 was fine but 8.801 and above are bugged. Have to use 10.11 because 2D productivity is importand for me. I'm using 4870, so there is no new features or performance improvements across newer driver releases.

Yes, but at least there is CCC2. I like to keep up to date anyway.

Welcome to the TPU!

TAViX · Feb 18, 2011

How does it act? In games, or...??

Swamp Monster · Feb 18, 2011

Just on desktop, and it's not affecting all users. Maybe only HD4000 series?

duke_srg · Feb 18, 2011

Well it's not just only on a desktop. With 10.12 I first noticed the same strange mouse behavior in WoW.

P.S. Thanks, but I'm was actually with TPU for the last two years but in read-only until now

You know, CCC2 may be ten times better drawn, but it is functionally the same CCC. Time and forces spent on redesign should better be used for fixing functional driver issues IMO. I've already been a witness of Matrox driver redesign for a dozen of years - from competing member of graphical market with great driver capabilities and outstanding rendering quality to the looser. I've never been a fan of a green camp of any kind, but I'm definitely don't like trends like this.

Okay so it's the hardware's fault . . okay. . . :twitch:

, sorry no, they are responsible for their drivers, and if they don't work right it's not the users fault, saying it's not their fault because of the nature of business there in is laughable at best. I'm sorry but I can and will continue to hold AMD responsible, for the faults in their drivers, as I said they are slowly getting better but they are not there yet as they seem to break what they had fixed earlier or create new issues with every update. You can blame it on something else if you like but AMD is responsible for the quality of their own drivers.

Wrigleyvillain · Feb 19, 2011

Nobody said they were completely absolved of any responsibility (though involvement is a better term) but the main general point is that these major issues are not even close to across the board so THERE IS NOTHING INHERENTLY WRONG WITH THE DRIVER ITSELF. NV drivers are no better or no worse in this way, as if that's even necessary to point out.

You are obviously not a programmer, software developer or even work in IT that's for sure.

And what would you know of this topic anyway as you don't even own an AMD card?
