Be aware myself and other have experience weird graphics issues with the Crimson drivers. Nothing game breaking, but it makes certain in-game graphics flicker rapidly, such as the voting % circlet and the conquest/assault point progress bars.

[THE ERASER]

Just to inform all you guy's who have installed the new Crimson Drivers, check out this Monday (11.30.2015) for a Hot fix of the driver.

It seems some Card's are having problems with the Fan Control that isn't adjusting the Fan's RPM to the GPU load and causes to throttle back the GPU/RAM Clock of your Card, so to prevent overheating.

AMD/ATI announced this over twitter yesterday or so, after some User reports.

Sighs - ok, did bite the bullet and made a few testing runs and a the only problem so far is the flickering of the voting percent circle bars in the Voting Screen.

Had everything on High/Very High/FXAA at 1920x1200 Fullscreen Dx11 on Win10 x64 - FX8350 + R9 280X - only Post Processing on low, VSynx, Glass and Glow Off, Cockpit Screens On - capped at 60 FPS with the FPS Limiter (have my Screen run at 60Hz).

A match on Viridian Bog which usually would not run well with that settings in the past but it was very smooth and fully enjoyable performancewise.

I will report the flickering to AMD...

If you have issues with the Driver use the Report Tool in english language (chose Desktop or Laptop):

For the Flicker in the voting you can download the fallout 4 fix and place the DLLs in your MWO bin64 or bin32 folder.
