Try unchecking the VPU recover option in the CCC. This should help with the crashing in ATITool.

Did you FULLY remove the old driver? Are your all your other drivers updated?
Although scores would vary depending on the driver, I never had a major framerate drop while trying different drivers; please check that the previous driver was fully removed by using Driver Cleaner and that your other drivers are updated as well.

I used driver cleaner, but then when i restarted the comp because i was installing the old drivers again, my mouse and keyboard wouldnt work...? So i reinstalled windows and now everything works fine with the 6.4, ill just wait till the actual release of 6.5.
Edit- Could the drivers for some reason of turned on AA? or something like that to make it drop so much? Just a thought.

I've never seen that happen, but I guess it's possible. And yes, if for some reason AA, AF or any other visual enhancement was enabled, it would drop your scores quite a bit.

Good job DataX!
I think I'll try XG & Zeropoint and choose the one I enjoy most.
Thanks!
