[Lionheart]

Its wrkin fine for me, just had a play through in crysis and battle field bad company 2, wrks fine

 

[niko084]

Ya they are working fine here on a 4870x2 win7 x64 ult.

No performance tests, just re-setting up a machine here.

 

[Chomes]

Did a clean install, but doesn't really work either. It installs the driver (gpuz shows v10.3), but the control center doesn't get installed...

All i did was exit ccc and run the installer for 10.3 and its installed fine.

[Zubasa]

When will the 10.3a drivers be released?

The 10.3a drivers is just a preview version

 

[Paintface]

no 10.3a is actually a more recent version released last week cause it didnt have to pass the whql tests.

 

[Melvis]

O-k, will it have support for XP?

 

[alexsubri]

Hmmmm, my 10.3a messed up my card and games, I went back to 10.2

Will try 10.3 final version now! Hopefully some of these problems are fixed!

Is this 10.3 different than the 10.3 I downloaded from TPU like a week ago?

 

[LAN_deRf_HA]

So then is 10.3a going to end up being 10.4?

 

[alexsubri]

So then is 10.3a going to end up being 10.4?

No, the 10.3a was the pre-release to get everybody excited and was sorta the "unofficial" release perse. 10.3 is the final release after it has been evaluated and passed guidelines, etc

anyways, this driver update is amazing!!

Dirt2 loads hella fast and my FPS is 55 vs 45 when I ran max with 10.2
EVERYTHING PLAYS BETTER NOW MAXED I'M SO HAPPY!

I mean max at 89 FPS is AMAZING, I use to get low 70s

 

[Blacklash]

According to Terry Makedon 10.3a are newer. I'm sticking with those.

sweet these didn't fix my multiple display flicker issue..

 

[Lionheart]

I sense sarcasm

 

[shevanel]

ya whenever my 2nd display is active i cant overclock or everytime the memory clock goes from 100% to idle it flickers. standard clocks no issues.

no big deal cuz i cannot use my 2nd display when i'm gaming anyway so it's really not that big of an issue anyway. just hit alt+down arrow to turn my second display off.. proceed to msi afterburner... when done gaming, close AB, alt+up arrow and my 2nd display is ready for porn again.
