AMD Releases Catalyst 10.12a Hotfix Update, Adds Radeon HD 6900 Series Support

[EastCoasthandle]

So they did release a new hotfix after all. Albiet a day after the release of the 6900 series. Not bad, not bad at all. Odd that some are but hurt over it though . No reports of anyone trying it yet? I think these are the review drivers 8.79.6.2rc2.

 

[Mistral]

So are those Preview on Non-Preview drivers?

10.12a hotfix?.. 10.12ap hotfix?..

??? There it all is the table has been cannibalized from the front of the RV by the recliner and mounted here for the monitor keyboard and mouse the computer is under it and the bed is right there just enough room to put my feet under the computer case .

 

[Mescalamba]

must be like what, 5 yrs since you had nvidia????

Yes. My last was GeForce 3 Ti something.

Im computer builder and Ive worked for some time in computer store and servis. Usually I just build computers for friends, family. So if they (like my best friend), decide to go green way, then I will build it.

So I had unfortunate encounter with for example 9800GX2 (which in the end cause mobo to die, due overheating, though I warned him, that it can happen). And some nVidia laptop models (they sux, all of them, except few highends in ASUS gaming notebooks). Plus for example, GTX460s didnt work with certain mobo, until mobo was flashed with newer BIOS, cause mistake in memory allocation for graphic cards. Mistake in desing that nVidia made, not mobo manufacturer that just followed specs that should be respected when building mobo.

My current PC is i7 930 @ 4,2GHz, 3x2GB CSX at 1600CL9 (or CL8 when I need) and cheapo HD 5770 HAWK from MSI. I dont publish it here, cause Im not that much TechPowerUp! guy.. Im more ofthen on XSystems.

[runnin17]

well you will be pleased to know that quite a few amd users on these forums prefer the 10.10e over the older 10.11 and the newer 10.12.

[cdawall]

Well the good news is they are trying to fix bugs unlike other companies...

 

[erocker]

Damn. I was hoping to see some member actually using these with their 69xx series card. Instead all I see are people complaining about driver update frequency and others proclaiming ATi/AMD driver failure not even related to this release. Dissappointing. :shadedshu

Sweet man! Can't wait to see how they work out for you.

 

[crazyeyesreaper]

yea ill let everyone know what scaling is like on AMD and see how it goes from single to dual card ill also reuse part of my 5850 review to showcase the change between dual 5800s vs dual 6900s

 

[buggalugs]

These drivers are working perfect for me playing hot pursuit atm looks gorgeous and smooth as.

 

[REVHEAD]

AMD drivers are just fail

!

and this statement is because? let me assume you are very young.

 

[cdawall]

and this statement is because? let me assume you are very young.

Because nv's epeen got stroked because they have on card that outperforms an AMD top card thus they are better...doesn't matter that the 5970 is still better just saying.

I would give up its not worth posting in 69xx series threads anymore.

If my store i go to had some in stock i would be using them,Try them on the HAF-X 6870 card and all it did was take out the ccc preview and the drivers are not mshql.

Hey Crazy when you get them don`t forget the 6970crossfire clubhouse.....


Hey crazy they say 2 6970s is even with 2 gtx580 in sli

 

[HossHuge]

Do you still have to use a least one displayport connection to use Eyefinity?

 

[LAN_deRf_HA]

I'll preach this till the end of time. They should slow down their driver release and focus on quality and testing, instead of relying on the enthusiasts who update constantly to beta test for them.
