Are these ifficial?

I think I'm just going to wait till the official drivers, these seem to give lower performance in some games according to some, and they are using an older D3D version.

Just asking for trouble tbh - at least give it a few days after the official launch to make sure nobody's pc gets bricked.

i wonder if they will change the xfire enabled logo to read amd as apose to ati

Drivers gave me small increase in 3dmark score, games that i played BC2, SC2, DiRT2, AVP were working ok. No artifacts or any other BS while playing.

They are not official. The leaked drivers are the mobile drivers but the guy from Guru 3D modded them to support other cards. I am running them purely because after SB build I couldn't remember what driver I had installed before and I kept getting driver crashes with the hotfix drivers. Haven't had a single problem with these modded leaked ones, so hopefully we will see full release soon cause I don't really like using modded stuff.

Drivers modded by Gura3D?!? That's like getting Trigger to remove your tonsils.

Well there is nothing wrong with my tonsils. And I would rather have a driver that isn't official for a few days over a driver that crashes a lot.

I installed these and according to device manager, driver is older than the 10.12 and 10.12 hotfix and the CCC version is 10.11??

Tres bizarre

Device manager is probably showing the D3D Driver version which is 8.810.0.0 in these 11.1 Catalyst drivers. (8.14 for 10.12 I believe)

Shayper · 17 Jan 2011 at 00:17

Anyone tried these on a 5850? Or am I gonna have to be the first?

I will wait for the officials. To be honest all this bad chat about bad AMD drivers and the 10.12 run everything fine something I couldn't say about the first set of drivers for the 460 when I had that for a few months.
