Download AMD Catalyst 14.11.2 BETA driver. This beta driver works with Windows 7 and 8.1.
We have a discussion thread open on this driver right here.
Highlights of AMD Catalyst™ 14.11.2 Windows® Beta Driver Performance Improvements
- Dragon Age: Inquisition performance optimizations
- Up to 5% performance increase over Catalyst™ 14.11.1 beta in single GPU scenarios with Anti-Aliasing enabled.
- Optimized AMD CrossFire™ profile - Far Cry 4 performance optimizations
- Up to 50% performance increase over Catalyst™ 14.11.1 beta in single GPU scenarios with Anti-Aliasing enabled.
Important Notes
- The AMD CrossFire™ profile for Far Cry 4 is currently disabled in this driver while AMD works with Ubisoft to investigate an issue where AMD CrossFire™ configurations are not performing as intended. An update is expected on this issue in the near future through an updated game patch or an AMD driver posting.
Resolved Issues
- [409235]: Small chance of intermittent screen tearing or corruption in Call of Duty®: Advanced Warfare on high settings 4K resolution in AMD CrossFire™ mode.
- [408892]: World of Warcraft can sometimes exhibit corruption when using CMAA in AMD CrossFire™ configurations.
- [407431]: Minecraft sometimes produces corruption when changing video settings in windowed mode.
- [407338]: XDMA Quad CrossFire™ configurations in portrait Eyefinity modes sometimes display tearing or stuttering.
Known Issues
- [408723]: System can sometimes hang when upgrading to Catalyst™ 14.11.2 from Catalyst™14.7 in AMD CrossFire™ configurations. As a workaround please completely uninstall previous Catalyst™ software versions before installing Catalyst™14.11.2 beta.
- [409518]: Slight performance drops in FIFA 2015 on AMD CrossFire™ configurations.

does anybody experience frame-drop problems with fc4 when driving and running as if the hdd is loading more data into the vram which causes stutters.
interesting thing is that i can put the graphic settings to whatever i like, low, high it does not matter, so the vram of my card cant be full.
I think i got that too, the game is installed on a 5400rpm hdd sadly cause i don't have room for the game on my 7200rpm hdd.

I've had CFX twice, it had issues yes, but it was pretty good if it worked.
I had much better experience with SLI, almost never had problems with it.
Multi GPU setups are never worth the price / effort. That's a lesson I had to learn the hard way.

Game Test : Far Cry 4
OMG .STAY AWAY IF YOU'RE USING CROSSFIRE.
14.11.1 NO AA 67, 64.65, 65 ,67 , 64, 63.61 AVG=65.21 FPS
14.11.1 2xMSAA 61.58, 61.61, 61.62, 62, 64, 63.65 AVG=62.41 FPS
14.11.2 NO AA 56.2, 48.2, 57, 53.6, 56, 53 AVG=54 FPS
14.11.2 2XMSAA 54.6, 52, 53, 54, 55, 48 AVG=52.766 FPS
14.11.2 CROSSFIRE DISABLED 2XMSAA AVG=41.6
I double checked these results.
Reverting to previous version.
---------EDIT----------
Sorry but there seems to be a bug with power options! ,it should be set to 'High Performance' and not balanced and this should fix the problem .Im also getting much higher fps using this method. I would like to know what frames would I get if had to test v14.11.1 and power option set to high performance.
try patch 1.3.0 for far cry 4 and test it with AMD 14.11.2 also
change power options to high performance and change processor state minimum and maximum to 100%
