amd released their latest driver some days ago and i wanted to ask that should i install 13.9 or stick to the previous driver 13.10beta, it is very confusing since 13.9 released after 13.10 and i have 13.10

i have hd 7950..
i also know that 13.10 was mainly about crossfire frame pacing, but i have only one gpu
so is 13.9 better

please tell me

I would imagine that the 13.9 is just the 13.10 but with the bits they not quite happy with removed..

If your 13.10 is stable for you - you may as well stick with it. If you worried and want the "official" stability of a release version.. go back to 13.9

Its really your choice. don't need us to tell you what to do,

I'd say if you have cfx then 13.10. If not 13.9. You may even find no difference between the two! Try em both out and do some benchmarks.
