10.6 Causes LOW FPS in BFBC2 For Crossfire User's.
Quote:
Such ashame, I had high hopes for 10.6 due to the main reasons it improves Flash 10.1 and steaming HD videos. Check that out hereIf this profile update doesn't work I am heading back to 10.5 who's with me!?

Same here. Back on 10.4a's which are by far the best drivers for me. Stick with what is good and not get all
about it I guess...

Even on Rage3D, an ATi fanboi forum, these drivers suck worse than the 10.5's.

Anyone with a 4800 series card try them? I haven't installed them yet, but I play a lot of BC2 and am not sure if the slowdown is just with the 5000 series cards.

For single cards the driver is great. And for crossfire in games other than BC2 the driver is great.... just not crossfire BC2.

It really depends, I've been using crossfire since Sept 2008 and it's been OK. You really have to monitor GPU usage and keep updated on drivers and application profiles to make sure things a popping the way they should.

Yup, he admits that there is a CF problem with BC2. Not sure when it will be fixed

I got some weird dips in fps as well in BC2, but couldn't tell if it was a driver related issue or my mouse was having issues, could be a shitty server maybe, but meh, no problems for me so far except that one

Hmmm I just ran BC2 and confirmed that it's still using all four of my GPUs but performance does seem to be down a bit compared to before.

What usage are you getting on each GPU? I was getting 20-30% usage and my performance was about 40% of what I usually see. It's completely broken IMO.

I'm a little interested in whether this effects 4800's as well. I just installed a 5870 today so I'm giving my old 4870 to my ex-wife to CF her up and she only plays BC2 these days. I don't wanna go over there set her all up and have her call me whining it sucks...
Were there App Profiles for the 10.4's? or use the 10.5 App profiles with the 10.4a's perhaps? Maybe I will just wait until this is sorted out until I bother with it at all.... OH and my brief test with the 5870 I was getting the same sorta thing as PesadeloNuclear. Odd drops. I just chocked it up to me cranking it in DX11 just to see how well it would run.
