AMD Catalyst 12.7 BETA (8.981.2 June 12)

Saw the 12.7 and thought "Wow! That's early".

Then it hit me - no it isn't really. Where's the year gone?

:(

PS - thanks on behalf of the ATI owners :)

yes, heaven down, bf3 slower, everything slower. AMD are going backwards with every driver release.

Hmm. I only have a measly 2 cards compared to your 3 ;) but I will install the 12.2 WHQL and then the 12.7 beta to see which works best for me! I won't get around to it till tomorrow though.
 
I've tried these out.

Hopefully the 2d voltage isnt borked like 12.6

Edit: seems to be ok, voltage is .805v at idle, ramping to .848 when viewing the web.
Edit2: BF3 Metro 64 player HC PowerColor ref 7970 @ 1125/1575 at stock voltage 1920x1080

Min 71fps Max 183fps Avg 118.94fps

Edit3: Decent gains from this driver

Looks very promising for performance, looks like these drivers are the ones to have for the 7000 series. Will wait for the WHQL version before I finally update from 12.3 :).
