Also, question...

Do you think I'm ok to install 12.4 CAPS using these Beta Drivers?

Should be fine. Just governs crossfire scaling. Worst case just uninstall the CAPS.

I just emailed AMD explaining the whole situation, as well as Tweeted them.

Hoping to get a response today.

Yes. You want the latest caps

 

[Dark Shroud]

Always update the caps for gaming and other issues. This is one area AMD does right for their users.

I know I should install the caps. I was not wanting to chance the 12.4 caps screwing with the 12.x beta's I'm using is all. Just wondering if mixing version numbers would cause anything.

Will install soon.

What was the driver version on the CD with the card? Just wondering if your out of box experience would have been better if you used the CD for once.
