Support for the following new AMD Desktop APU (Accelerated Processors) products:

   AMD A10-7850K
   AMD A10-7700K

Mantle Beta driver

   AMD's Mantle is a groundbreaking graphics API that promises to transform the world of game development to help bring better, faster games to the PC
   Performance gain of up to 45%(versus the DirectX version) for Battlefield 4 on the R9 290 Series
   Performance gain of up to 200% (versus the DirectX version) for Star Swarm on the R9 290 Series

       AMD Catalyst 14.1 Beta must be used in conjunction with versions of these applications that support Mantle
       It is expected that these applications will have future updates to support additional AMD Mantle features

   AMD Mantle Beta driver is currently supported on:
       AMD Radeon™ R9 Series GPUs
       AMD Radeon™ R7 Series GPUs
       AMD Radeon™ HD 7000 Series GPUs
       AMD Radeon™ HD 8000 Series GPUs
       AMD A10-7000 Series and AMD A8-7000 Series APUs
   ?????For additional details please see the AMD Mantle Technology FAQ on amd.com?

   Enhanced AMD CrossFire frame pacing – Support for 4K panel and Eyefinity non-XDMA CrossFire solutions (including the AMD Radeon R9 280, 270 Series, 7900 Series,  7800 Series) and Dual Graphics configurations?
       ???Frame pacing ensures that frames rendered across multiple GPUs in an AMD CrossFire configuration will be displayed at an even and regular pace
       Supported on 4K panels and Eyefinity configurations
       Supported on AMD Dual Graphics configurations
       Supported on DirectX® 10 and DirectX 11 applications???

Resolved issue highlights of AMD Catalyst 14.1 Beta??

   Resolves ground texture flickering seen in Total War: Rome 2 with high settings (and below) set in game
   Resolves flickering texture corruption when playing Call of Duty: Ghosts (multi-player) in the space station level

Resolved Issues

   Crysis2 has insufficient CrossFire scaling in some scene
   Red Faction: The game has no or negative crossfire scaling with DX9 and DX11
   Age of Conan has corruption and performance issues with crossfire enabled
   Company of Heroes shadows are corrupted when using crossfire
   Resident Evil5 's performance is unstable when display mode set to Window mode
   Total War: Shogun 2 flickering menu/text
   Frame rate drop when disabling post-processing in 3DMark06

Known Issues



   Mantle performance for the AMD Radeon™ HD 7000/HD 8000 Series GPUs and AMD Radeon™ R9 280X and R9 270X GPUs will be optimized for BattleField 4™ in future AMD Catalyst™ releases. These products will see limited gains in BattleField 4™ and AMD is currently investigating optimizations for them.
   Multi-GPU support under DirectX® and Mantle will be added to StarSwarm in a future application patch
   Intermittent stuttering or stability issues may occur when utilizing Mantle with AMD CrossFire™ technology in BattleField 4™ - AMD recommends using the DirectX code path when playing Battlefield 4 with multiple GPUs.   A future AMD Catalyst release will resolve these issues
   Notebooks based on AMD Enduro or PowerXpress™ technologies are currently not supported by the Mantle codepath in Battlefield 4™
   AMD Eyefinity configurations utilizing portrait display orientations are currently not supported by the Mantle codepath in Battlefield 4™
   AMD Eyefinity technology is not currently supported in the Star Swarm? application
   AMD testing for the AMD Catalyst™ 14.1 Beta Mantle driver has been concentrated on the following products: AMD Radeon™ R9 290X, R9 290, R9 280, R9 270, R7 260X, R7 260, HD 7000 Series, HD 8000 Series, A10-7850K and A10-7700K. Future AMD Catalyst™ releases will include full test coverage for all AMD products supported by Mantle.
   Graphics hardware in the AMD A10-7850K and A10-7700K may override the presence of a discrete GPU under the Mantle code path in Battlefield 4™
   Frame Pacing for Dual Graphics and non-XDMA configurations above 2560x1600 do not currently work with Battlefield 3 and Battlefield 4.   An upcoming release will enable support
   DX9 Dual graphics is not supported in AMD Catalyst 14.1 Beta.   An upcoming release will enable support
