Installed fine, However, I can confirm these STILL have the shadow corruption bug in Warframe where there is a square shadow under your character on the floor that follows you around. Here is a screenshot of it, you can see part of this shadow behind my warframe on the floor. The shadow is partly under the ground and partly showing, most the time its under the ground as you walk or run but moving the mouse around will show the shadow even more. If you jump the shadow will follow your character up in the air and it will then completely show the whole square shadow.

I think it is fault of game developers . you wrote to their support ?

Yep wrote to both the devs and AMD about this issue. Game also likes to randomly crash sometimes, but when it does it crashes to desktop and then my browser loads up and goes to the warframe website where it says "HARDWARE FAILURE DETECTED" and says to resolve the issue, dont overclock anything, and not to use beta drivers. I have tested with ALL 14.x leaked drivers, and 14.7 RC drivers and ALL have this issue. The only driver where the game does not crash or have this issue is official 14.4 and 14.8 WHQL drivers. It seems the developers of the game don't like the support or update their game to accommodate for newer driver versions.

Downloading now... Let's see if it works... I'm still afraid of moving away from the WHQL's...

I'm just going to wait until the full driver\catalyst rework. 14.8 WHQL is great driver anyway.

Installed just fine on my end. First time an AMD driver didn't require a restart (I restarted either way lol).

Thanks for the informative benchmarks. Just one question - does the new driver still have DX9 corruption issues?

Polygon corruption (broken coordinates making geometry to shoot out to certain places) in Flatout 2 has been fixed in one of previous drivers. And with this driver, it is still without problem.

7670M here, CCC crashes just like with the August 27th drivers, but I don't really mind. No problems so far but I can't say I've noticed improvements.

ok, thanks'll do the test above 14.9 install driver only "had" support for processors with embedded graphics and run smoothly on my chart, but as I see that information in a limited series had my doubts whether or not you could install. sorry bad English

The official driver doesn't support below 7xxx; the driver asder00 provided in this thread does (on-paper; as to how it actually performs is up to you to find out 😛)

Original driver doesn't work on my 7870. Screen resolution is f'ed up, Display isn't recognized, almost no options ins Control Center .... I'll go back to 14.8.

Driver from asder00 installed just fine... When it comes to improvements comparing to 14.7 RC3 that I use before, don't see any, but what's worth notice is that it fix graphical artifacts in Warface.

Is there anyone here with a 290(x) card who tested this driver? Especially heat and fps wise?

Not sure if there is much more to expect Bulldog. As far as reworks go it is pretty much a miracle that our Envy machines currently function in Dynamic mode. Maybe a rework of CCC will happen?

Pretty much every modern laptop is fixed in dynamic mode, the iGPU is connected to the display, while the GPU renders the picture in high performance mode.

AMD has released its first fully-functional OpenCL 2.0 driver aimed at early adopter developers. We’re not broadly promoting this driver because we have a performance-optimized driver coming out shortly and we suggest you wait for that version. We plan to release a new SDK when the updated driver becomes available to help developers come up to speed. That said, we welcome any feedback from the community who are interested in test-driving this version of the driver. As for the SVM capabilities, this driver fully supports the core OpenCL 2.0 features - including course-grained SVM. AMD has not yet publicly disclosed plans for OpenCL 2.0 optional features - stay tuned for further details.

Driver works good on my system, didn't know it's such a early release. Is the driver that will coming out shortly, the true 14.9 WHQL, maybe? Or 14.10 beta?

Bulldog has a Manhattan line Radeon Mobility 5650. It is a fixed / muxed switching system. I am waiting for AMD to get my Eyefinity / 120Hz 3D working again on my Manhattan 6850m (fixed / muxed) via their new "forced dynamic" mode. ^^ this will never happen as you yourself have mentioned that the iGPU is connected to the display. The iGPU is able to output at 120Hz. AMD just isn't able to do "3D" via dynamic it seems. Besides I am still seeing people on 7650m muxless cards not being able to go into sleep state. AMD still has work to do.
