AMD driver team surely is getting better and better.

It's another Beta driver.
One thing I don't like is, I keep unchecking the box for automatic download and install, and every time I look for new drivers it is checked again.
Edit: I just installed 16.4.2 which is the last WHQL driver.

small changelist on this one, if its accurate it really is just a hotfix

Forza 6 Apex beta is out today hence AMD have released a driver update. What gets on my tits is the test was performed 3rdApril 2016 (over a month ago) using and Intel...yes an Intel i7-5960X and Fury X....REALLY? This tests boasts a performance increase of up to 27% on a Fury X. This isn't a true representation of rigs gamers have at home. Where's the 390, 290, 380 test paired with an AMD CPU/Intel i5?

First AMD install failure ever.

I usually install all the latest just to A/B test performance regardless of change log.

For these new Crimson drivers I found using DDU to be extremely effective.
