By rlemar

AMD’s Catalyst 12.2 WHQL driver suite has now gone live. Catalyst 12.2 WHQL offers official Radeon HD 7700 series and 7900 series support for Windows 7/Vista, those who are running an AMD Radeon HD 7000 series on Windows XP will have to wait until Catalyst 12.4. The Radeon HD 7700 and HD 7900 series now support super-sampling AA (SSAA) for DirectX 10 and DirectX 11 applications that support it; in order to access SSAA, users will have to enable it via the Catalyst Control Center. Furthermore, several enhancements for Eyefinity 2.1 have been included such as custom resolutions, dynamic configuration changes, Windows Taskbar re-positioning, as well as Eyefinity Profile Manager improvements. The driver can be downloaded directly from AMD.
