hey guys, i recently upgraded from my dying 4870 (may she rest in peace) and decided to go with the R7 260x. in hindsight i should've just went with the R9 270 but it's too late now and now i'm stuck with this devil of a card. don't get me wrong, this thing has great power, it's just that AMD can't make drivers to save their lives. i started out on the 13.12WHQL drivers and everything was running fine until one day i noticed that if i left my computer idle for too long that when i tried to play a fullscreen game the computer would lock up with just a black screen. it didn't bother me too much until recently when it started to do this without it even being idle. i would boot up and it would freeze right away. so i decided to go to the 13.20WHQL drivers, and thy seemed to be fine. didn't freeze right away and barely ever does, but the performance is terrible. i had to set all my games to low-medium settings just to get 40 frames. so my question here is is there any drivers that actually run the R7 260X decently? or is there a quick fix for this? anything that can solve this problem. my specs are:
ASUS R7 260X OC EDITION
Phenom II x4 955 BE
8GB 1333Mhz G.Skill RAM
600W Raidmax PSU
MSI 760G MOBO
thanks in advance guys.
