Mathragh · Feb 19, 2013, 04:31 PM

only shows 5 in the changelog, atleast for me?

Psychoholic · Feb 19, 2013, 04:32 PM

Yep, shows 5 in changelog, but the download is for 6.

BigMack70 · Feb 19, 2013, 04:32 PM

There are currently no release notes for beta 6.

I can't get them to install without errors, even after multiple clean driver uninstalls, so I'm sticking with beta 5's for now.

Well, I guess thats great for the people playing that game

I wonder what progress they're making when it comes to rewriting the memory management, but I guess we'll have to wait a bit longer for that still

Getting BSOD's with this driver, bummer!

Widjaja · Feb 20, 2013, 06:12 AM

Only played Borderlands 2 so far with these drivers.
No issue to be reported on this end.

the54thvoid · Feb 22, 2013, 09:05 AM

Played a bit of Crysis 3 last night on 12.11 (6) beta's and it was okay but choppy. SMAA sure takes its toll.

Installed the 13.2 (6) beta's this morning and it's a lot smoother. Have to say as well, AA isn't as necessary on higher density pixel screens. It's like a trade off - more pixels requires more processing power but less AA, smaller resolution creates far more jaggies, requires much higher AA.

CAPSLOCKSTUCK · Mar 13, 2013, 08:37 PM

For what its worth

13.5 beta improved fps by 20 % in NFS shift 2 . from 48ish ( vsync off) to 60ish (vsync off)
