    Didn&#39;t notice any FPS improvement, didn&#39;t perform a thorough test though, just a quick messing about in the editor ***
    @Dynamax
    Maybe you were using really bad driver settings before and now that the new driver reset them to defaults you&#39;ve got this magic boost

    they suck for me. tried the hot fix first, then the WHQLs. They make the ground textures grey at distance with square patches of green... tested with a few different drivers ect... 7.9s bad for my 2900&#39;s. The 7.8s tho are great. Also the flickering textures for buildings came back with them, 7.9s...
