So a pimp update using the updated drivers is supposed to bring a decent boost to the 290 cards. Anybody using this yet? I'm waiting for my USB stick to re-image and I'm setting up an FTP server to backup my conf files now.
 
The pimpupdate scrypt doesn't show a major revision since the 29th. For which algo? A little context and details might be nice.

X13 was about 10% bump up for me but I haven't tried X11 yet.

http://getpimp.org/downloads.html you'll have to reimage, its not just a pimpupdate kinda thing this time. Pretty big improvements.

I haven't tried my 270's or anything on this update yet but I had heard specifically about some people getting 25% bumps on their 290's. I'll play with tuning some more at some point but about a 10% bump with identical settings is nice.

Played around with the new version yesterday and wasn't able to squeeze any additional power out of x13. Actually, I was struggling to find settings to get it on par with the previous version..
