And now with this latest update that has just been launched, that awful flickering is back with a punch. Way to go DICE.

AMD’s Mantle Does NOT Require GPUs With GCN Architecture
Okay, I’m pretty sure that both AMD and DICE have been misleading people on purpose these past weeks regarding Mantle. That, or they decided to ditch Mantle’s GCN-architecture requirement, something that seems highly unlikely. During AMD’s Developer Summit, Johan Andersson confirmed that Mantle is not tied to AMD’s GCN architecture, meaning that there isn’t such requirement.
