    Cat 8.8 is here.

    u can use overdrive to oc tho, but 8.8 should be better becos last time, the 8.7 beta driver was pretty high in 3dmark vantage, but having the same prob where u cant oc lolz.

    ok, even if i mod my stock bios to 1.2v, the card wont start also. I guess they are protecting those factory clocked card... DAMN!! Anyone can come out with a solution do share with us ya :)

    i think we cant tweak the bios for 8.8, when i use stock bios, the card ran perfectly, but when i used modded bios, the card will give black screen just before the welcome screen. Even i tried to use amdgpuclocktool to tweak it to 720 and straight away give black screen. HD4850 user here.

    y wont the AA setting work? I tried to set it at 4x AA "edge-detect" but when i ran GRID, i still see jagged edge same as i didnt turn anything on. I tried to turn off AA at the menu, but still wont budge.

    I am also having prob with 8.7 beta which if i overclock pass 700mhz, i cant boot into vista. So, Urbklr arent giving false information. I am also having problem with GRID currently where i stuck at Le Mans tracks with repeated looping sound and blank screen.

    am now on 720/1000, just now i was playing GRID, and the display lockup with looping sound on Le Mans track. But when i try those tracks other than Le Mans, i can play it with nothing happen. Later i gonna try 1.2 patch see got improvement or not.

    But i scare it is the hardware problem. Lately, i keep on trying with original bios and modified bios, tweak the clock speed here and there, and i came to a conclusion: The card will stutter at vantage and 3dmark06 whenever u try to OC it. Running everything at stock, there is no stuttering...

    Ya it is 0.1 seconds, a very short choke. Sorry my timing wasnt that good lolz. Really hope it can be fixed.

    i am using 8.6 hotfix currently. I really hope it is a driver issue. If GPU temp #2 is showing Vreg temperature, i think it should be fine, the stock one are giving a reading for 50-70c when load.

    oh, my accelero got a 120mm fan running at max speed cooling the heatsink and i think its air will cool almost all the components beside it as the heatsink itself is quite big. Furthermore, i got a intake fan direct to the card, so airflow shouldnt be a prob. I dont know is the stuttering random...

    I am using accelero s1, havint around 50c when load. What is VReg? is it the mosfet area? I am running naked at that area. The GPU-Z GPU temperature #2 is showing around 40-50c when load. I will try updating the directx and check the net frameworks.

    Does anyone know what is the cause of stuttering when i am running 3dmark06? It is like the camera will choke for maybe 0.5 second when it is moving. This happens when i am tunning my 4850 to 725/100 at 1.2v. If i am running at stock, i dont see any choking.

    i found out the prob, i tried to uninstall my 8.7beta to 8.6 hotfix, it works with the BIOS Urbklr gave me.
