Could explain in part the big performance improvements out of the "never settle" drivers. AMD chose to optimize throughput at the expense of orderly output. Optimize drivers for what most reviews show - absolute frame rates - and hope that the more frequently occuring hiccups aren't noticed or are overlooked because only a small handful of websites investigate beyond averages and minimums
Agreed. It could explain in part the big boost from the 12.11's was it? Mondo increase in framerates and mondo increase in erratic framerate throughput.
Brent mentioned that higher framerates helped alleviate the symptom on the AMD Crossfire setup. Requiring about 60 to 70 fps to feel smooth where as Nvidia would need only 40, depending on game.
