From the release notes: "This driver provides support for Windows® 10 as well as full WDDM 2.0 and DirectX® 12 support which is available on all AMD Graphics Core Next (GCN) products, - AMD Radeon™ HD 7000 and newer graphics products.***8203;" Still doesn't show Feature Level 12.0 support for my R9 290: http://abload.de/img/dxdiagnew80ury.jpg Does that come later or is there something broken?

Hi Can somebody tell me if DDU is safe to use in win10 ? I also upgraded to win10 and seems like everything driver related has carried over to win10 I also have vsr, frame limiter and package version is ?!?!? 15.20-150715a-184226E

The release notes insist that I can get 3200*1800 VSR with my 7970/280x. Somebody should at least update them, or tell us what is required.

Difference to 15.7.0 ???
I haven't installed them yet (I'm uploading the DLL). It seems that the base driver went from 1046.2 to 1062. Seems like a pretty substantial difference, and they also promise general performance increases in the release notes.

Why are there 2 threads with same driver links? And what is the difference between win 10 and win 8.1 in performance and i mean both fps and frametimes in games like witcher 3, ACU, FC4, etc? Don't need to know about the draw calls. Is it stable yet? Is the driver installation problem solved where some have mentioned that they couldn't disable win update or that the driver crashes? And last but not least, clean install or just upgrade from win 8.1 directly into win 10?

It has WHQL, so it must be, right? Right? :banana:

That is a lot of known issues on some pretty popular games. I just got 15.7 installed again yesterday after WU dropped me down to some beta driver. I hope BF4 doesn't crash in mantle for me, my FPS are all over the place in DX11 mode.

Hi Can somebody tell me if DDU is safe to use in win10 ? I also upgraded to win10 and seems like everything driver related has carried over to win10 I also have vsr, frame limiter and package version is ?!?!? 15.20-150715a-184226E
yeah it is, i used it in safe mode couple of times today, no issues at all. But i would combine it with the old driver sweeper, seems ddu doesn't find all the remains.

^ just lol... I am using DDU on W10 for quite some time. even bit older version worked just fine. Edit: Driver notes state: native 1920 X 1080 @ 120Hz can VSR from: 1920 X 1200 @ 120Hz - this is available 2048 X 1536 @ 120Hz - this resolution allows only up to 100Hz

With full HD or 1440p native display 3200x1800 is max with 1200p native display 1600p is maximum. Now VSR is working as usual. So what kind of displays do you guys have that are reporting 1600p as maximum? I'm guessing same as me 1200p

API scores took a dive but Firestrike only lost 20 points so I guess its a wash. On Win10 as of about 15minutes ago, so thats in comparison to win8.1 and 15.7(1046).

Alright i know most of you are really interested in the Drawcall benchies, but seriously how is that being helpful? Test real games, games like farcry 4, witcher 3, assassins creed unity, shadow of mordor, bf4 online, gta v, watch dogs where performance really matters and not some benchmarks that hardly show anything. I don't give a rats ass about some 10k increase in the draw call benchmark. The OS is out already, and i can hardly find a review that shows ingame performance.

It's a single benchmark we run to compare drivers. If you don't think it's useful then don't look at it and do the benchmarks yourself.

While i still like you, synthetic benchmarks don't reflect in real games performance. Fury x wins firestrike and loses to the gtx 980ti in nearly every game. So running the API bench, doesn't really much and doesn't help much in showing how the new os is doing against the older one.

I know the API overhead test is synthetic, but it's one of those things AMD are far behind NVIDIA in, CPU overhead. It might not show that a game runs better but it shows they are optimizing the driver thread to allow more draw calls. It should improve every DX11 game.
