I really think that it needs to be a new feature to the forum down vote pointless posts.

An AMD cpu has no place in a solely gaming build, end of.

Ok, ok, the first time I've posted something.... like no one here makes mistakes before clicking the post button.

Sweet! Also Crossfire Freesync support, which a lot probably waited for. And Windows 10 support. There will probably be a new driver for Windows 10 at launch, but this will do!

Yea, I'd like more context as well. 

 

Does it improve Fiji ? Does it unlock Fiji memory clocks in Catalyst ? What's with the long list of game names (in the second post) ? Is there optimization for these particular games ? Is this a beta driver ?

 

So many questions...

Best part about this driver so far is the Frame Rate Control :)

Yeah I can activate it on my 290 as well. Awesome. I seriously hit 5900+ FPS in some loading screens. That is just dumb, and this should eliminate that. I do hope they will bump it from a max of 95fps to 144fps in a later update, but I can't use more than 60 right now anyways.

Man I felt like I was taking a gamble on AMD but only a week later they added what I needed.

Not if it's the same as the one in RadeonPro software, I tried limiting War Thunder to 60 FPS but the input lag was insane, almost a full second of input lag.

In case the moderators do not ban me as requested, this is a notice that I have left and am not coming back.

Please explain 

Framerate limiter

 

When not using Vsync, and in game menu's, the FPS can rise into the 3000's, Framerate limiters,..this will stop the GPU screaming like a bitch wondering why your doing such things...
