Let's try this again
AMD recently released a new Catalyst driver in beta form, version 15.9, which contained "performance and quality" optimizations for the Star Wars: Battlefront beta and DirectX 12 optimizations for the Fable Legends: Benchmark. Good stuff, except it also introduced a memory leak.
"We are aware that some users are experiencing an issue in AMD CAtalyst 15.9 Beta that causes all available video memory to be used whilst resizing active browser windows," AMD stated in a support document. "Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention and being patient whilst we continue to investigate. We're working on getting it resolved as soon as possible."
At the time, AMD advised Radeon graphics users to roll back to Catalyst 15.7.1, though that's no longer necessary.
AMD has a new Catalyst driver available, Catalyst 15.9.1 Beta. It offers all the same performance benefits and fixes as the previous beta, but without the memory leak issue.
You can download the driver here.
