thanks

Thanks - I see there is a little Skyrim improvement but I think it's about time that AMD sorted out the crossfire issue. I am managing the get a decent game but think it can be better.

11.11a have been around for just over a week I think. Not sure why this thread says new. Also this should be in the graphics section with the other 11.11a threads not the PC games section

Well since this is a courtesy prompt for other people like myself had no idea they were out (I stumbled across a link), and the fact that I do not frequent the graphics section unless I'm looking to upgrade. I'll trust that if the mods find this so out of place they can make a decision.

Also I had no idea there was a 11.11b out - but since I'm on single gpu it won't matter to me.

Looks like the difference between a and b is:

New in Catalyst 11.11b:

Delivers AMD CrossfireX performance scaling for (Elder Scrolls Skyrim and Assassin’s Creed: Revelations)

Thanks for pointing this out! I had just installed 11.11a Lol!! Maybe now I can see the performance in Skyrim I have been waiting for.

EDIT: Seems it broke my HD6850 crossfire. Others are complaining it did nothing but makes things worse

Ati has monthly driver updates - but this is 3 in a month. Last I heard nvidia isn't in the same ballpark.

These are hotfixes, they've always been around.

WHQL drivers are still released on monthly basis.
