Performance Boost Drivers !
Thank you for the heads up HH , it's raining AMD drivers daily
. Good drivers , no problems to report so far. 290x @ W10 Pro x64bit. Tested on NFS 2016 , Bioshock Remastered , Bioshock 2 Remasterd and Bioshock Infinite.
I was using old 16.9.2 , with this new set of drivers 16.11.2 i got a bump in performance in the games i play mostly NFS 2016 , i guess they are optimizations for BF1 that uses the same frostbyte engine as NFS 2016 and hence why the nice boost in performance or maybe that larger shader cache is helping a lot. Great performance boost drivers. Highly Recommended

The improved shader cache sounds nice, but has anyone encountered this issue?

"Battlefield™1 may experience an intermittent application specific error message popup citing graphics device removal"
the dx problems with bf1 are multifacetted.
they are not solely driver problems.
the issue you are talking about is already "investigated" by DICE devs:
https://forums.battlefield.com/en-us/discussion/38131/directx-function-error-nvidia-still-no-fix-update-please-4-11-16-14-59-cest
as stated by the ea "community manager" in the thread.
so what's happening is
- you have the problems with VRAM management in dx11.
- you have issues issues occurring because of the totally normal higher VRAM usage in DX12
- you have crashes with the "DXGI_***device_hung...removedreason..." error
- you have a certain type of surface flickering which only occurs in CFX/SLI
(which btw is not completely fixed by the 16.11.1 for amd, will test .2 later)
- you have another type of surface flickering on certain maps (i.e. amiens, BB) independently of the amount of cards you use
yeah and as you know the internet ... all these problems are getting mixed up. fixes for one problem are propagated as fixes for the others... etc...
we still have to wait for DICE, AMD and NV to sort this stuff out.

I don't think this issue is regarding the DX problems, though...
