I thought it's all the while there, available when using multiple monitors.

Sorry kentang emas, AMD doesn't have a desktop grid software as far as i know, unlike Nvidia which still has it

AMD used to have a similar hydragrid software that they quietly dropped a while back when CCC was still being used, although you could still install older versions of hydragrid onto the latest CCC, AMD finally dropped it completely with Crimson.

Hydragrid or HydraVision? First time heard about Hydragrid. D:

solly.........Hydravision yes.
But I mostly use it for the desktop grid setup......

I thought they make it standalone a couple years back?

tell me how to make it work?
Previously, I was able to get Hydravision for older versions of CCC to work on the latest version of CCC.
Now that I've switched to crimson, I can't get Hydravision to work, unless you're suggesting that I have both CCC and Crimson installed.

Ouhh I was thinking what new stuff, I search HydraGrid and it came out Hydravision so I just talk as if it's part of HydraVision. tongue.gif

What about using Crimson's Eyefinity settings?
*
AFAIK, you can't split a single screen with eyefinity, can you? You can only merge multiple screens into one.

Eyefinity is good when i wanna go through a giant spreadsheet, but useless when I want to view multiple documents at the same time, which is where hydravision comes in handy....

Surprisingly though, I don't think they've removed all CCC features as the advanced eyefinity setup just links me to something that looks less like Crimson and more like CCC brows.gif

but then why am i expecting anything......the guy who started this thread is a PR guy, not a drivers guy sad.gif icon_question.gif

Upgrade to Window 10. tongue.gif

I don't need to use Windows 10 to use Window's built in pseudo-desktop grid system.
However, they only start working on the edge of a screen.......which wouldn't be a problem if I wasn't running a Tri-screen setup.... innocent.gif

For my setup, I run dual screen. One HDMI and One DVI. No Hydravision or whatever needed.

Are you doing the same thing?
*
like i said, i mostly use it for the desktop grids, to clip windows onto sections of desktop automatically......instead of adjusting them manually.
Multidesktop feature of Hydravision already supplemented by Windows 10 by default, but Windows 10 doesn't have as good a desktop grid software.

You try this one and see.

I don't know if it works for you. My Windows 7 with R7 250, it's not running. Hrmmm.....

You need to download from the CCC page for one that works doh.gif

Hrmmm. Looks like something we might have to look into.

Hydravision on CCC drivers can still work by using hydravision from CCC 14.9 ???? (or any other older version) on the latest CCC.
But doesn't work and is longer available on Crimson.

Also with the new crimson, maximising any windows maximises it to all 3 screens, which is pretty annoying.
At least, back with CCC, you can use hydravision to grid them to certain monitors.

1/3 of the card is just heatsink and fan..... laugh.gif

Anyways, Nitro has been confirmed, just not launched yet.

what about the higher than advertised power consumption though?
People have been reporting 200W power draws from this supposed 150watt card........AMD>, any answers?

AMYmy is PR la. Technical stuff I can answer you to the best of my ability since the card is with me.

From my experience, I haven't been able to push it to that level of power draw, not even close.
*
Some reviews, such as from Toms are saying it's hitting more than 150W though, quite a few reviewers too,

RM 1249 is quite cheap lol why are you so angry

because this card is a sub 1k card, even with current exchange rate because of its alleged target audience.
It should be priced as much as a Nvidia GTX960 only, but in reality the price is not too far from a GTX970.

What's the point of this event when the card has been available in Malaysia since day 1 of availability in the US?

I already feedback to AMD APAC and AMD MY those stuff.

Heck I've been telling them AMD stuff pricing since 2015 when I was with their key people in Computex.

what do? AMD lose either way.....
charge more, consumers won't buy your product;
charge less and you don't have enough money to fund your next Bulldozer tongue.gif
They don't really have any wingle room unlike Intel, even if Zen is Super fast, I can see Intel slashing Core i5's prices just to kill Zen before it earns AMD any money whistling.gif
