Yeah. I just got my first ever ATI card and I spent 3 hours last night trying to figure out how to override refresh rates(a feature that is has been part of nvidia drivers for years). I had to install a third party app just to do what I wanted. Still trying to figure out how to do color profiles.
It's not that big of a deal, you're just unfamiliar with the ins and outs of AMD. It took me a while to familiarize myself when I went to nvidia with the gtx 260 a couple of years ago, but now I'm very comfortable with either company.
While AMD doesn't have everything Nvidia does with regards to drivers, I've haven't had any issues(other than a couple of leaked betas) with them since I moved back to AMD/ATI when the 4890 was released. All in all, I'm having less problems now than before when I only ran Nvidia.
Since you're new to AMD, I'm going to suggest a program called RadeonPro, which adds a lot of functionality. It's mainly for profiles(with a lot of options not exposed by CCC), but it also has benchmarking, FPS display, and screenshots.
Ya I left AMD video cards eariler this year . I haven't much to say about it. Because of past post here. I have to say I like the NV drivers and the hardware . Man that came out hard.
Sorry to bump up an old thread, but I found some new information. The newest version of Process Explorer now had GPU monitoring support, and that includes memory usage on all GPUs.
