Awesome!! I'll give them a try and see how they do.

Which do you see more performance improvements in, OpenGL or Direct3D?

I used to normally get 40ish average, maybe 45 on a lucky run.

Told ye' ;)

heh, Kromis, as you can see all the recent drivers had made me jaded :D

At the risk of sounding cheesy (...) tis the best X-mas gift ATI can give Radeon Owners.
COD2 has increased performance
FEAR runs better but not enough for me to use 4xAA :(
Company of Heroes is smooth as butter after my alt+tab trick (do this in game and get 2x FPS...)

Thanks again for the 6.12 Beta links gersson!

You're welcome. This is actually kinda old -- out for about a week. I found it fishy @ first cos it's from a french site and also since its so big. Some guys over @ the Driver Heaven forums gave me the heads-up.

Any updates with the smartshader support? That is about the only thing I care about at the moment. :p I'm going to stick with 6.3 unless they have added that back in.

Can anyone tell me if you're having problems with GRAW using 6.12 betas?

I get a hardlock + reboot as soon as the first splash screen comes up.

That worked guess it got messed up on the 1st download I wasnt at the comp so it might of not downloaded the whole thing. Now is it just me or do these drivers have huge boost in IQ. ;)
