Still waiting on something worth upgrading from my GTX 1070 that's around the $400 mark (probably the next generation after this) , but if I had no video card and had to buy something today I'd probably go with the 5700 XT.

Yep I'm the same way. Went from 7950 to 1070. Almost felt kinda bad because the 7950 was a fantastic card that held up really well over the years, but I gotta have my 120Hz smoothness. I admit I'm a bit partial to AMD (being the underdog, and because my first build had a Radeon x1800xt) but I...

I've played around a little bit with 3D when I got my 120 Hz monitor (23", 1080p, Samsung S23A700D w/active shutter glasses). For me it's a neat gimmick and something cool to show off to people for a few minutes, but I feel it doesn't really add much to the experience. TriDef3D didn't work...

This driver has done wonders for my performance in Doom, even on my old 7950. It's actually playable on Ultra now, with 50-70 FPS (whereas before it was in the 30s and 40s). Very nice improvement (just kinda wish it made it a few days earlier, but I'm still playing through the singleplayer).

GPU-Z and Afterburner both report this driver version as 15.8 (9.14.10.01162), though Radeon Settings itself reports it as 15.30.1025.1001-151129a-2 which would seem to be correct. In any case, I wasn't really having any fan issues (though I have a manual fan curve set by Afterburner), though...

I'm really impressed with this driver in Windows 10 (versus 15.7, which I had installed last night). I had two major issues: -Bluray disc playback in PowerDVD 14 was really wonky (would stop playing and/or crash when it went fullscreen) -Arkham Knight had a major performance regression compared...

You should be able to right click and select "Pin to start". It works on any folder, library, hard drive, etc. Here's my start menu with all my folder shortcuts set up:

I'm liking it so far, though there are a some niggling issues (mostly browser-related). Edge is really fast, but doesn't seem to work with Google Play Music (it just shows an empty page with the playback controls) which is a requirement for me. And like IE11 before it, it still doesn't use...

Yeah, there's a problem with MSAA, but it's certainly not the end of the world. With all the other settings cranked up I don't even have any VRAM (or performance) to spare on MSAA, so I leave it off anyway and just use FXAA. All in all I'm happy with how good it looks and how well it performs on...

But having a higher than 60 FPS framerate *does* make a difference on a 60 Hz monitor (as long as Vsync is off). A higher framerate will have more tearing, sure, but each small sliver of screen will show a more recent moment. Here's a very rough mockup: Imagine you're looking at a pole (black...

Yup, same with me. Always had credit card issues with them. Started using Paypal and haven't had any problems ever since with GMG. I'm tempted by the deal, but I beat it on the Gamecube a long time ago and I'm too big of a wuss to play through again :P

Yeah, this caught me off guard. When I first installed these it installed CCC and the like but not the actual driver. I didn't realize that they had split 8.1 and 7 into separate files for this release. Lots of people on Reddit ran into this problem too. I mean it's simple enough to fix, but...

It appears that they are officially out. Listed as 14.12 on the downloads page. Downloading now. Edit: Oddly enough, the driver package installed, but the driver itself didn't. I did my usual process of simply uninstalling the old driver via Windows Programs and Features, reboot, and install...

My first thought was overscan as well - if not in the driver, then maybe in the monitor itself? You might look through the OSD for anything related to overscan (though this wouldn't really explain why it only happens with the AMD card). I also noticed even in your screenshots text looks...

Looks like HDMI 1.4a.
