    what's the point of it really, unless you have a GA

    1.3.6 works well for me

    Crippled my aga with 1080gtx from 15266 fitrestrike score to 2400

    8fps....

    Went back to 1.08 and it's fine again
    Scratch this comment! Wrong thread. I meant the update for the new 15r3 not r2. Apologies for the misinformation.

    Didn't test AGA but PC works fine. Desktop Mode charge must be enabled after BIOS upgrade.
