As this issue seems to have been resolved with new drivers I'll mark this thread as solved now.
The patch did not fix the memory problem.
Intel i7 2600k
16GB RAM
ATI 6870
Actually i want to buy a AMD R9 290 at chrismas, but will take the GTX780!
Added www.amdsurveys.com/se.ashx?s=5A1E27D25AD12B60 as link so we can report this issue to AMD.
Sent mine in. Crosses fingers...
Intel Q6600 @ 3GHZ
OCZ 4GB 1000MHz DDR2
XFX HD6870 1GB DoubleDissipation
Windows 8.1 Professional N x64
Chrome 31.0.1650.63 m (latest)
GPU driver: 13.11 beta 9.5
Even after the latest patch (16 dec) I've still got the growing NP pool issue. After 2 maps my game becomes unplayable due to swapping. This causes heavy stuttering and freezing. I'm also worried this will ruin my SSD due to excesive swapping activity.
The only way to fix this for me is using Windows 7 compatability mode, but I want to use the DX 11.1 features and optimizations.
That's it! I've got enough!
I'm gonna solve the problem by bying a nvidia gtx770. AMD? Never again!
