Dark Souls 3 came out a month ago...

Forza 6 crashes for me while loading the first race. Any tips? No error message displayed, simply crashes to desktop.
No crashes for me neither using 16.5.1. Check out your clocks. I've seen problems with too much overclock with DX12 games such as Rise of the Tomb Raider and Quantum Break. Cheers!

Surprisingly good if we take into account the UWP games' precedents. Butter smooth on my system with max settings at 1920x1080.

Not sure if these would do anything for my 290, so I'm going to play Forza for a while on 16.4.1's to see how it does maxed out at 1080p. If it seems underwhelming I will give these a try and report back.
Well, the game barely started or ran on the Crimson 16.4.1 drivers. Got to do the first race in the GT and then every time a loading circle would come up the game would freeze, needing an Alt+F4. Changing vehicle paint color would crash the game as well, as would any attempt to play in Free Play mode. Updated to the Crimson 16.5.1 that just came out and it has been a night and day difference. Games launches and loads super quickly compared to the X1 version I have almost 1000 hours on, all settings maxed and never a dip under 60FPS, not a single crash and I've changed tons of car colors, done tons of free play and finished 6 of the tours so far. Seems to play great so far, lack of content being my only complaint. Tracks make the game, and I really want to take the FXX K out on Imola or Monza. Will most likely have to wait for FM7 on Win10 for that, but I think Turn10 has put a very solid foot forward towards their PC debut.

http://gpuopen.com/amd-crossfire-api/ Lets see if the developer's even use that for better CF optimize...??!!!?!?!!
Usual excuse of lazy or nvidia partnered devs for improper optimization of their games was lack of info, lack of contact with amd, etc. Now they will have no excuse, simply no excuse, if some game will be working bad on amd hardware and said game is nvidia gameworks then it will be clear that there was fishy deal between dev and nvidia.

CF/SLI is dead, its been on its way out even before i bought both of my R9 280X's. We are all holding on that hopefully somehow its going to improve but it keeps getting worse with every new game that gets released. I'm just going to move to a single high end card as soon as i have the cash, a nano would be a good option for me (Unless they release a water cooled polaris card) as i cant for the life of me, see me playing games at 4k for a while.

Game runs quite well on my system too on high at 1050p Some stutters when first loading onto a track but the actual races are smooth and im guessing at about 50fps ish sometimes feels like 60 smooth too also i have never been heavily into racing sims and never played forza before but i am liking it

Wow new drivers and gratis: -Anti-aliasing in Witcher 3 not work -Radeon Settings constantly random crash -HDMIâ„¢ Scaling options may not be available in Radeon Settings on some system configurations or some applications may ignore the HDMIâ„¢ Scaling options setting. -Where are all video settings who was in Catalyst Drivers? Deinterlacing, Denoise, Denoise Mosquite, De-blocking, De-contouring...? Catalyst driver pls come back. Crimson is a s*it drivers

I assume you already tried DDU. http://www.guru3d.com/files-details/display-driver-uninstaller-download.html btw the video option are in there....somewhere behind the first menu.

Anyone tried this with The Division? I had to roll back to 16.3.2 to get the best performance for it. On later drivers CF no longer had flickering but actual performance was worse than single card performance on the earlier drivers.

No in Catalyst drivers always was Deinterlacing, Denoise, Denoise Mosquite, De-blocking, De-contouring and others. Now we have only several options. Always I use DDU. Radeon settings/Crimson drivers is a s*it. New drivers=new problems=0 optimization

I've had a good time with this driver so far. Dark souls seems a little more stable on frame rate, SFV isn't having drops to around 56fps. Have to try more games.

Can't find em any more either so you're totally right. I would swear they were in some earlier Crimson driver. I'm lucky, and happy :banana:, I didn't run into problems with any of the AMD drivers so far.

So, with new cpu, motherboard, windows and driver, ROTTR DX12 benchmark still stutters for me, and circling around the presets does not fix it completely. These dx12 boost drivers are not really suitable for my gpu I think. Oh well, I'm just gonna use 16.4.1 dlls for it. Firestrike score: [SPOILER]http://i.imgur.com/lVaBUHr.jpg[/SPOILER]

Yes, there is severe stuttering in Tomb Raider DX12 since Crimson 16.4.2.
