DriverTT: AMD releases Catalyst 12.11 Beta 8 drivers

By: (more) | Software News | Posted: Nov 21, 2012 12:34 pm

AMD have released their Catalyst 12.11 Beta 8 driver, which offers up some improved performance in some games. We're looking at a 5% increase in performance for Max Payne 3, single GPU improvements for Far Cry 3, and more. Here's the full list:

  • Improves performance up to 5% in Max Payne 3
  • Includes single GPU performance updates for Far Cry 3
  • Improves CrossFire scaling for Planetside 2 (Crossfire scaling is still limited to ~30% at 2560×1600)
  • Resolves the Skyrim lighting issue (missing a lighting pass) for the AMD Radeon HD 7900 Series
  • Resolves the hang encountered playing Dishonored on the AMD Radeon HD 6000 and AMD Radeon HD 5000 Series
  • AMD Catalyst 12.11 Beta 8 for Linux includes significant performance improvements for Left for Dead 2
