Nice find! I'm going to pass though, I see the CCC version is newer but the OpenGL is older, and the rest remain the same.

Thanks anyhow!

@asder

Wow, you remembered mobile. Your QC and attention to detail is vastly superior to the entire staff at AMD. They should ask what your process is to release actual unified drivers.

troll-lol ain't gonna happen with "older" driver, still 13.3 beta 3 has the absolute edge on gaming terms.

anyway thanks @asder time to test with the leaked 8.1 windows (fingers-crossed) i don't know what's gonna happen. xD

My average with 7970 soc went from 50 to 60 (hitting above 70 now wheres with 13.3 beta 3 i was below that) fps in crysis 3 all on very high, finally my gaming experience is complete!!

But i don't understand, everythingh in the package is pretty much the same and more importantly the numbers for the main driver hasn't changed. Then how can the performence increase by such a large margin? (no artifacts to accompany it either)

Isn't it older than the 13.3 b3 ?
D3D has the same numbers and OpenGL is older than 13.3

Nice set so far, maybe only the CCC version is newer but seems to work a little better then the 13.3b.
I´ve tried Bioshock Infinite, BF3, and GW2. All of thems seems smoothers and Heaven is getting better results for me too.

Thx!

Thanks anyhow!

Beta 3 is basically Beta 2 with OpenGL from an earlier build since the Beta 2 OpenGL had bugs and slowdowns in it. So the older OpenGL is apparently the one to go for.

I haven't checked out these particular drivers though, I tend to skip drivers made for a specific budget card (like the 7790) always doubting there will be changes that affects any other card with a different device ID, but now I'm not sure.
