Trying to load the new drivers, still getting: RADEON SETTINGS AND DRIVER VERSION DO NOT MATCH. PLEASE TRY AGAIN AFTER UPDATING TO THE LATEST VERSION!!! Really. why cant amd resolve this continuous problem.. Do they even test these drivers before they release them..
What is going on at AMD? Did they fire their decent software engineers?
Do not tell me to go through error reporting, that is AMD"S JOB, NOT MINE! My job is to purchase a functioning gpu with functioning drivers, not to trouble shoot for AMD!!!!!
Amd can ask these ridiculous prices for gpu's they can hire a software engineer to read these forums to see all the people having the same issues.. This is not a new issue and many others have this same issue.. Its amd's responsibility to resolve these issues in a timely manner, so people can get what they pay for!!!!
I feel your frustration. It sucks that stuff doesn't work driver after driver.
I won't suggest a opening a support ticket as you obviously have chosen to voice you concerns to people that can't help. We do however have a sympathetic ear as many of us still have issues too.
I asked many of the same questions recently in a hand written letter I wrote to corporate with no answer yet. I hand wrote the letter after sending several emails to corporate email addresses received no response. In fact the only one that responds in any manner ever is Matt and I don't know what he can really do about any of this. My guess being that he and Ray are as likely sick of the situation as any of us. He did not say anything like that. I don't want to put words in anyone's mouth. Just that these guys are smart, and absolutely try to be helpful when they can, the situation comes across to me almost like they are not allowed to help (again my own assumption), so I don't know how they could not share at least some frustration with the situation.
On the pricing, unless I am mistaken. AMD has not benefited from the substantial rise in prices other than selling more volume. That price increase is all at the retail level, so no the MSRP is still the same as AMD initially set but the market, not AMD has dictated the higher price for all of us.
