Thanks for this

Happy to help. I had posted it in the BF4 thread and was surprised to see no one had posted it in here yet.

 

[jackstar7]

I installed these right over 13.8beta with no issues and then jumped in BF3 and had no issues there either.

Hopefully that spells good news for whenever I get the chance to hop in the BF4 Beta.

Wonder why this specifically states 32 bit driver for BF4, because I preloaded and it specifically mentions that beta requires a 64 bit OS

Its for the main release, when the game comes out I believe. A little early, but alright.

Dice said they were making it 32 bit compatible for the 9% that don't have a 64 bit CPU.

...and people are worried companies will abandon Dx because of Mantle.

 

[chimaxi83]

Yeah, I figured that. Both Nvidia and AMD typically release drivers for AAA betas, and BF4 says 64 bit required, so I was a little confused at this one stating 32 bit

Thanks for the news.

I wish AMD's catalyst had some sort of notification option for beta drivers when they become available. Like Forceware does.

I'm always telling my software to not phone home instead.

Hopefully 32bit OS and not 32bit CPU.

Thanks. BF4 is testing my cards (a pair of 7970s) pretty well. I have to scale down to "medium" quality settings to get smooth framerates.

 

[3DVagabond]

Hopefully 32bit OS and not 32bit CPU.

I can't be bothered to find it now, but he said 9% 32 bit CPU. I would venture to guess that more than 9% of the market is on 32 bit OS.

Anyone take a spin with these drivers in Skyrim? The 13.9s caused serious CTDs for for forcing a rollback to 13.4. I didn't install the 13.10 Beta 1s because they were older than the 13.9s.

 

[deaner]

Crap drivers for my 7990.

It disabled one of my GPU's. I go back to the 13.9 WHQL drivers and we are good to go. I install another BETA and it does the same thing. I'm not statring to wonder if I have other issues. I have ULPS disabled, and with the 13.9 drivers, I get both GPU's working, yet only the 2nd works when in game, its weird.

If anyone has an idea?

Yeah, I noticed the same thing

hello guys,

I was helping one of our customers earlier today. He was having performance issues with BF4; specifically, he was getting low fps (under 30). His rig met, actually surpassed, the min requirements, and installed the latest drivers (13.10 Beta). In short, it turned out it was a known issue. Don't want to derail this thread, but I thought the link can help you learn more about the known issues:
