The situation has been solved people!

i just reinstalled windows, reinstalled new drivers and everything... BUT this time with MW3... i get perfect and nice graphics! about X30 performance and quality boost too!. i think somehow OpenCL might be related with MW3..

I dont think you understand what OpenCL is.
 
yeah MW3 doesnt use OpenCL 😀, its a ID3? engine and ID never used openCL, not yet.


btw you can get AMD's openCL here

http://developer.amd.com/sdks/AMDAPPSDK/downloads/Pages/default.aspx

just download AMD sdk 2.6



Although it says AMD driver should already include openCL
Description:

Display Driver
OpenCL(tm) Driver
AMD Integrated Driver
Catalyst Control Center

The geniuses at Asus don't implement OpenCL on their video cards - I've looked at 10-20 cards on their site (from Radeon HD 6950 to Radeon HD 7990) and on the GPU Features sections the cards don't have "AMD APP Acceleration" support. This features means OpenCL support on the gpu for the applications that implemented it.​

Ancient necro. Further, they just don't list the checkbox in their marketing materials. Those cards 100% certainly support OpenCL and AMD's APP Acceleration. So you necro'd a 2 year old thread to make a point that isn't even correct. 🙄

As a first post at that. It was funny seeing this thread though, didn't even remember posting in it the first time.

-Closed
(see what I did there😉 )

speaking about closed... Is there any mod here? :awe:
 
You're wrong Headfoot. I've talked with a person from ASUS and he told me that the video card that I've bought - a Radeon HD 7790 - 2GB doesn't have OpenCL support because they didn't implement it. GPU-z didn't show any Opencl support either. AMD says that the Radeon HD 7000 series have OpenCL support, but the manufactureres don't always implement it. They also use footnotes in the product description where they list their cards have AMD App Acceleration or OpenCL support to confuse buyers. They don't explicitly say this card has Opencl support with the latest drivers, or this card has DirectCompute support, etc. Here's a quote from the SAPPHIRE HD 7970 3GB GDDR5 product page: "AMD App Acceleration is a set of technologies designed to improve video quality and enhance application performance. Full enablement of some features requires support for OpenCL, DirectCompute or DirectX Video Acceleration (DXVA)." This is a pretty confusing description in my opinion. The best way is to talk to the manufacturer and ask if the card has the capabilities you need. Topweasel, I posted because it may help other people.
