Catalyst 9.12 leaked (Vista/Win7 64)

when you have 2 cards in crossfire it does add up the cores and the ROP's. if it didnt, then it wouldnt even be using the second card!! the only thing it doesnt add up in xfire is the memory.

Yeah, thats disappointing, so basically the only game with performance improvements is stalker...

Awesome, glad to see there still putting all their efforts into 3dmark, cuz thats all the matters these days.
 
I grabbed the drivers off the official website (from the download link earlier). I had some problems getting started but after playing around got everything working. Tested DiRT2 and my average framerate went from 76 to 81 at a lesser overclock (850/1250 - haven't had time to properly push it), though given the sporadic nature of the benchmark it's hard to take anything conclusive from it.
