Anyone with the latest damn drivers installed? 270.xx dunno exactly, I guess they are fucking overheating my PC, had two shutdowns today, last one was back in 2007 when ME was released Laughing

So anyone with problems? Currently rolling back to a old driver, ffs...

Edit: Guess the whole fucking world was playing Crysis on my GPU

It fixes Dragon Age 2's performance by a million galaxies to the better. That's the only gain I've noticed.

Honestly no idea, as I said my last overheating was back in 2007 when ME was released, played like 7/8h in a row Laughing oh well the source power died tho then, glad didn't this time.

So two days ago I installed 270.61 and yesterday got the first shutdown, I was like, mhm ok, left the PC for like 2h, then I started it again, worked for another few hours then while I was working boom shut down again FUUU, same story, opened again after 2h or so and checked the usage of all craps GPU/CPU/Memory/RAM's etc, and the only one fucked up was that one you see it in the above picture Laughing

That usage was while the PC was idling, so no apps started or so...but just before the shut downs I was working, 3D related on a high poly character and some 2048x textures but that isn't a problem since I'm doing that for months and fucked up just after I installed the new drivers. -_-
