Thanks Brian. Grabbed them off of Guru earlier and only tried Crysis 2 before getting busy... but I saw maybe a bit more fps overall but still exists extreme underutilization in random areas all over this game on this driver. The. Net one i grabbed from Guru it was once they got the new one for the day since the first driver had a bug so they released it later. Ill check more thoroughly and many more games later... Vsync off
