AMD Catalyst 12.11 Beta11 is now Available
AMD just sent us word that they have released AMD Catalyst 12.11 beta11 drivers as well as AMD Catalyst 12.11 CAP2. You can download them here. This driver improves performance in Far Cry 3 as well as several issues previously unresolved in the earlier Beta drivers. The key take away is that if you’re playing Far Cry 3 – you need both AMD Catalyst 12.11 Beta11 and AMD Catalyst 12.11 CAP2 installed. This is because the 12.11 CAP2 is what improves Far Cry 3 performance for single GPU configurations with AA enabled! Download both!
