News: Driver software blamed for Radeon frame latency troubles; to be fixed with updates - PCSTATS.com News: Driver software blamed for Radeon frame latency troubles; to be fixed with updates

We concluded that AMD has work to do in optimizing its drivers for the latest games. Now comes confirmation from AMD that software is to blame for some of the latency issues, along with word of planned fixes, including a rewrite of the GCN memory management software. "
