Dude - You’re running beta drivers. I realize that you don’t have a choice here but I wouldn’t expect WHQL performance from a Beta driver. The good news here is that since AMD has a partnership with EA and BF4 is the flagship title for their the 290x, I would expect a WHQL driver in a day or two tops. Otherwise they’re going to face some bad press and a lot of pissed off users.
mehh spoke too soon, freezes are happening again. Its only BF4 however that is effected from what I can tell. Frustrated to say the least. Going to try a clean uninstall/reinstall of beta8 and see what happens.
Happens all the time, you’re not alone! 
Sure, it’s beta drivers, but it’s still pretty frustrating to get sub par performance from a card like this, especially when considering all the positive the reviews, right?
Anyway, I seriously hope you’re right! 
Thanks for the advice, but I’d rather keep my cash and won’t be upgrading anything for now, maybe next year… 
Well I may have resolved it again? I have no idea. I ran this utility called Display Driver Uninstaller. It found remnants of my 560Ti’s still on my machine. I used the utility to remove them and also removed the 290x drivers and software as well with it. I did all of this in safemode, then rebooted and installed the Beta 8 drivers again… so far so good. Will report back.
I’ve also done that, but it didn’t solve any performance issues for me…
Yup same problem again… At my wits end. Hopefully WHQL drivers are coming soon. It’s strange- when the card stops responding my screens go black but I can still hear the game running in the background. Its like a driver crash or something. I will look through event logs today and see if anything is in there. I’m running two monitors at 120hz so not sure if that has any bearing on problem.
Thats a higher graphics score than me - I’m pulling 10993 in the graphics score and 7711 in physics. Your score looks pretty good to me.
Saw you updated the thread to show you had fixed. Thought someone on here might like a follow up on my situation too, in case they’re searching like I was and couldn’t find anything. I ended up fixing my issue by turning off VSync in my games. I control VSync through the AMD CCC and all my crashing has stopped.
Haha no problem! Hope everything work out for ya!
Really? That’s awesome, because the only problems I still have are random crashes… gonna try this!
