There is no set date for the next driver, but as soon as it's ready I'll post it here.

People were complaining of poor Crossfire performance in the game Dying Light. The developer, Techland, have released a game patch which has corrected these performance issues. The patch should automatically download on Steam.

Capping tessellation was the same suggestion I made as well It's nice we've got the option in the control panel.

Thanks for the update Matt. Hopefully there will be crossfire profiles included as part of the performance improvements. AFR gives great raw performance and usage but isnt really usable due to flickering etc. At least we know the potential is there

I must have another play with that Tesselation setting. I did give it a try last night (found out in our Witcher thread in the PC gaming section) but didn't seem to make any difference regarding performance on my particular setup.

Glad to hear that work is being done on W3. Looking forward to it

Have to say I'm really impressed with the performance of the 7870 in games like TW3 - it's so much better than I was expecting.

It improved my FPS but I don't use the AMD CHS shadows because they have issues such as when you're flying in a plane the shadow turns into a black box and sometimes while you're riding a car on specific angles all shadows just disappear.
