I can't even get a driver that works on XP ...........

Effin AMD Beta release bullshit .......... 12.1 previews no go as well as 11.12 ....

If you find something please let me know, would like to go cold with these but really just a waste of juice with out XP ..... I hope they release dirvers soon as even their 7 64 drivers are dead linked now


On a brighter note bro, the card is an absolute beast with a fan that can easily remove a finger on high speed. Down side for many but I like it ..............

But then again I like the low seats at the cup race so I can hear the cars better
