How do I make profiles for individual games? For instance, if I want to override the anti-aliasing settings in some games, but not in others. Perhaps triple buffering too? Using nvida's control panel having different settings for different games was easy. How do I do it with my radeon card?

Using the latest drivers and CCC2.

First you change the 3D settings to whatever you want them to be for that game (4xAA, 16xAF, etc). Hit apply.

Then you click on Presets (in the left pane) and "Add Preset"

Name it whatever you want, and the settings you choose will be saved to that preset.

Make however many you want.

You have to manually select the preset before running the game. The presets aren't automatically applied when a game is started, although you can make the preset launch a game when you select it.

Thanks. RadeonPro looks like exactly what I'm looking for as long as there aren't any issues with it.

Does it work with 6000 series cards, let me enable morphological AA, and doesn't require annoying stuff like allowing unsigned drivers?

Radeon pro is great. It's exactly what amd is missing. I was getting pretty disappointed in myself for switching from nVidia after so long since amd is incomprehensibly lacking automatic profile switching for games. The CCC is just woefully inadequate. It hardly has any options even I if I do want to manually switch options.

It does allow you to enable/disable morphological aa and tons of other settings that should be but aren't in the CCC settings. I don't get any unsigned driver problems in windows 7 x64, so you should be good. It's kept up to date too, it seems. It was last updated on the 9th of February.

Yes to all three. :)


Sweet! One last question, do I need to uninstall CCC to use it?

RadeonPro sounds good from what people say of it in this thread, guess I ll have to go give it a look.

Automatic profile switching for games, does sound like something I could use, not all my games are that new, and for the older ones might as well use lots of AA ect, and the fact that it works with MLAA too, so you can have it on for games you like and not for others = brillant.

AMD need to have their own version of this.

No. RadeonPro doesn't have the video and monitor settings. You can use them both. The profiles for RadeonPro will override any of the game settings in ccc.
