yep, is on mine still droppin way too low, im gona have to flash that problem away, its making my scrn flicker ocasionally
drivers seem pretty good for a 5870 anyway, with everything except AA set to max quality in drivers and all game settings set to ultra Dirt2,Black ops, BFBC2 F1 2010 dead space 2 and a few others crysis inc, all run marginally better/smoother and the quality has deffinately got better with Morpho on plus 4x multisample AA all the above games look much crisper compared to hacked 11.1a drivers

WOW I just got done with playing Crysis and OOOHHH MAN it not only looks better but it has also eliminated some of the texture tearing I was getting in the old 10.10e drivers ! This is just FANTASTIC ! YES ! it even looks much crisper and clearer too . WOW !
 
Yeah, I love MLAA, especially in games like Crysis, Death Space 2, Metro 2033, GTA, etc..
 
good good gooD! i'm excited to try this one out tonight! :roll:
 
Ive noticed better color more FPS with mostly everything I play (Call Of Duty).....
The only problem I'm still having is Black sky in Nuke town on Black Ops...
 
They been working good for me too. Finally some drivers worth upgrading from 10.10e.

Excellent I haven't had a time to try it but I am hoping for better, sharper-looking grass. Now that I have a setup that can really play it well totally maxed I am being picky. I am using ZPOMAF so AF is enabled. It's mainly just grass but all the flora could look better for sure.

I thought I noticed IQ improvements though I had only tried two games...
 
i wanna see some comparisons people lets go!!!! :D
 
I just installed 11.2 and the morphological filtering and tessellation controls are not there. I have an XFX 5770 and I uninstalled 10.12, ran drive sweeper in safe mode, and then installed the new driver.

What am I missing here?

My question is what do they do and more important , what should the settings be ? As this is the first time I have seen them .
 
I can get Morphological Filtering to appear there by using RadeonPro but not the Tessellation control.

THIS IS VERY WEIRD!
 
I have no Tessilation Morphological Filtering control of any kind....Why not?
 
Everyone has said that to him :laugh:

I swear these drivers problems are never even driver issues, it's your* hardware + that driver that guffs things, Not the driver by it's self.

Proof? The numerous amount of people that have not had driver issues in a long time.

The Numerous people not having the same problem you* described the drivers being the cause off.




* Not you zubasa, just using "you" in a general kinda way.

Touch wood not had a proper problem since cat 9.8 : ]

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.

The 11.2 driver was supposed to add these features to 5000-series cards.

Some users are getting these features in their CCC while others are not.

No it's usually the driver + some other software issue or even user error of some sort. But of course they can and do constantly make them "suck less" in addition to adding features and new game support.

Do I NEVER have issues? No. But I troubleshoot and mess with it and in the end it works again. The drivers aren't inherently "fail". Period.
 
well I got something new in CCC2, a little checkbox to enable or disable CrossFireX power saving now whether or not it works is a mystery turning it off seems to do nothing on the desktop and my 2nd gpu still gets turned off so maybe it's just some funky new thing ATI are getting ready

Athlonite you are the perfect example to the problem I am facing. You have a 5770 and you have Morphological Filtering and Tessellation Control in CCC while I have none.

Anyone else having the same problem? Any solutions?
 
So no one can answer this for me at all ? My question is what do they do and more important , what should the settings be ? As this is the first time I have seen them .
 
Well not so good as far as performance goes...

Did test with 3dmark11 with 10.12 & 11.1 same exact scores but using 11.2 my scores drop 10-12 points tried that 3 times to make sure but so far the 11.2 may get better image quality but it perform slower in dx11 than previously drivers (10.12 & 11.1)

I will try some games latter on & see but so far i may go back to 11.1...?

Yeah I can Im just too lazy right now. Will say now that Morph AA is only really good for games that don't have it any other way like Dead Space as kind of blurry, but that's somewhat subjective.

remember Bump mapping well tessellation is like bump mapping on steroids (easiest way to put it) morphological filtering is just AA done another way pretty much 8x AA with the speed of using 4x~6x AA but done to every visible texture, sorta like nVidias 4Q AA which equates to 8x AA quality at 4x speed
 
just installed it but i didn't have the chance to play with it just yet :D
