AMD Crossfire™ Status Indicator: A new feature in Radeon™ Settings that allows users to toggle an AMD Crossfire™ status indicator on their screen when running in AMD Crossfire™ mode.

Ooooooh! I didn't even know I wanted that, much less how much I wanted that!

IT IS SO AWESOME!!! I don't have to wonder if Crossfire is active or not, no more bouncing between game and control center to see if the second GPU is heating up, GLORIOUS!!!

I'm not being sarcastic, I really do love this feature and had no idea how much I wanted it until I saw it. GOOD STUFF!!!

Erm.. I have two monitors, and in one of them I just have MSI Afterburner always opened when I'm gaming. My way of knowing that Crossfire is working is by simply seeing the GPU usage on both graphics cards..

Expect another driver update soon, because The Division is flickering badly when Crossfire is enabled, and I don't see them leaving that game broken when so many of us have been complaining to them about it. It's unfortunate, because the beta was working great, once the game got released though, it broke the driver.

Update 16.3.1 supposedly resolves refresh-rate lock under DX12. Get it while it's hot!
