AMD R9 290X GPU and Freelancer Discovery

[Mickk]

I'm finding a little odd that people are having a problem with the R9 gpu.

I have a Radeon R9 380 and I have yet to have any issues with FL since I bought it and pretty much every GPU I have had has been a Radeon of some sort and I've never had problems with FL that I can recall.

I haven't installed the latest drivers as yet, but they have been downloaded.

I'm currently running the 17.2.1 software, the full package, not just the drivers.

It's only for some R7 and R9 chips, and some Windows versions.
For example the R9 280(x) is a re-brand of the 7970/7950 and does not appear to be affected.
R9 290(x) and 390(x) are affected under Windows 7, but seem to behave fine under Windows 10 (currently using that with no issues).

That's interesting.

I was running my current GPU under Win 7 (now on Win 10) and had no problems.

Maybe I'm just lucky I guess.
