as stated in this thread, I have been experiencing problems with dropping frame rates in several of my games. I called PCS support and was pretty much told that there was nothing that they could do as it was clearly a driver related issue (their words not mine!).
since then, I have tried contacting AMD for their opinion, and they haven't bothered responding at all.
the drop in frame rate has started affecting some of my older games as well now, even TF2 is dropping frame rates on a regular basis, this has never been the case for me, even when I started noticing the drop on other newer games. I had to quit TF2 because the frame count would drop to 45 every 3 seconds or so before going back up to 60.
I can't understand why, and I'm finding it hard to accept that this is a driver issue, especially since I have not only fully uninstalled & reinstalled previous driver versions that caused no problems, but also as a last resort, have done a full format and reinstall of windows, followed by install of older drivers that caused no problems.
I don't want to go through wasting my time calling tech support again only to be told the same thing as last time, that it is a driver issue. that advice I found to be neither use nor ornament!
and on a final note, I'd appreciate it if you wouldn't merge this thread with my previous one, thank you.
to say I'm ****ed off right now is a bit of an understatement.
