    They seem to be unreachable for every common communication (support forum).

    whenever you encounter a bug, you have to reach them here
    http://www.amd.com/report
    OR for beta
    http://www.amd.com/betareport
    and try to be as accurate as possible
    not forum... :) that is, on the forum you can talk about it for sure and share your experience...but can't expect that the issues will be fixed without reporting...and everyone should report bugs or issues by the report form
    if you do that, you just have to wait...

    agree with you... but beta is good to report bugs, not only to say that something doesn't work as expected...so don't write on the forum only but rather report them ;) this is the main indication

    Thanx, but I've also gone that route several times. For example I have reported the v-sync issue in november.

    I think tomorrow seems like a good day for a Catalyst 14.2 beta. Agree?
