That's up to you, but do you think they'll fix a problem that only happens when the driver is modified? They won't even remove the dual-link DVI pixel clock limit even though we've shown the hardware is capable.

There's also the issue where EDID overrides don't always load properly on startup with Windows 8.1 unless the driver is restarted, and some people are having Eyefinity issues with newer drivers. I wish AMD would fix those issues, but I don't know if people are reporting them.

Well the fact that it's a "feature" Nvidia cards have and AMD ones don't might get their attention. Both companies seems to be obsessed with feature parity... But it's a long shot since DL-DVI is an dying standard these days.

I brought the issue to Warsam71 many months ago, but he didn't really understand, as AMD apparently knew nothing about the overclockable 1440p monitor craze, and he didn't know anything about pixel clock limits
