• Some users may find that their graphics product is not currently being supported by the AMD Gaming Evolved Application. We encourage those users to visit http://raptr.com/ to download the latest client or for information on when the application will be available to them.

Looks like it's only worth installing if you had trouble installing 14.9 or if you own dual 7990s (quad crossfire). I'll be skipping this release since I'm in neither category.

Still running 14.7 on my laptop. Upgrading to 14.9.1.
