These must of just came out.. Get them here
The shocker?? I CAN FINALLY PLAY USING QUAD-FIRE!!!!
Holy crap!! Just got done testing out BF3 maxed out and everything turned on in Eyefinity 6120x1080 @120hz using Quad-Fire on a 64 multiplayer server with 0 issues!!!
Crazy right? Only 5+ months to get this done.. The last 12.6 offical beta i could'nt get tri-fire to work without the cards not clocking right. These no probs.
Used the latest AB to comfirm that i'm getting 80-90% usage out of all 4 cards and all runing the same 3D clocks..
I'm in shock!!
Holy cow.. i can finally use my damn computer!
I'm getting smoother performance with a single card in Batman Arkham City. So I'd say single card users of the 7950 or 7970 should give these a go.
Do you believe another look at Crossfire vs SLI is justified with these drivers? Something as simple as a one page update perhaps?
This is an issue I've had with beta drivers in the past with the information in CCC not being correct, but it's never been anything more than a slight irritant. To make sure it's installed correctly, go to Device Manager and look up the "display adapter" information. Go to the driver tab and look at the version and make sure it reads 8.980.0.0.
Is anybody else going through absolute utter eyefinity display group hell with these drivers and crossfire? Its torture getting my eyefinity group to set across all three of my monitors and solving the issue involves random troubleshooting tactics such as disconnecting monitors, trying different group arrangements, rotating displays, etc, etc...sometimes I get it to group quickly and sometimes it takes me over half an hour. Whats worse, every time I reboot, my eyefinity is broken so I have to do the process every time I boot my system. Gah, I've had this bug before, but NEVER this bad. Getting my 3x1 eyefinity group working takes a fucking ACT OF CONGRESS!
Interesting. I have the correct driver # but incorrect date...
Maybe I'll DL them again and give it another go.
Sounds like left over garbage from uninstalling past drivers.. Was smooth for me. Though honestly i didnt have to do anything as somehow there was left over stuff and even after uninstalling the old 11.12 driver set i was using prior and just installing the newest i found that on my first reboot all my eyefinity settings were untouched. haha. So obvioulsy these settings from prior drivers are not going away after a simple uninstall. Might have to try a windows reinstall if other uninstall utilities wont clear old registry settings.
You skipped the wrong GPU gen. My one Asus cuII 7970 delivered a much, much better gaming experience than my old 6990. Now that the asus is paired with another 7970, I have to say they blow the doors off of a 6990. You should be able to find used 7970s in the $400 range and you should get about $400 for your 6990
Besides synthetic benchmarks can the 7970 outperform the 6990 in FPS in most games?
So basically you are saying that a 7970 will blow the doors off the 6990 in smoothness?
I always felt that when I owned a GTX580 it was so much smoother in gaming than my 6970's were. Then I scrapped the 580 in favor of a 6990 which I love.
But I am hearing that the 7970 is better but I think it would help if you could define better in what ways? I am not trying to defend my 6990, I am trying to find justification to go through the trouble of selling it and then getting two 7970's in it's place.
And will I regret the change? Right before Big Kepler or even the 8000 series of AMD? I am not even sure when those come out.

I can't get bezel compensation to work in a few games. Menus are broken and in Batman Arkham City, it doesn't work at all. The game acts like I never set it up.
Are you in fact a Premium member?
There are two 12.6 betas, one from May(which you have) and the one from June. They're both from the same branch with just a few tweaks in the newer set. Here's the link to it.
http://downloads.guru3d.com/AMD-Catalyst-12.x-(8.980.0-June-4)-Unofficial-BETA-download-2923.html
You'll have to completely uninstall the set from May since the version ID is the same and the installer assumes it's the same driver and is set up so it won't install driver with the same version IDs over themselves. I went from the May set to these just using the built in uninstaller and worked great.
Just saw at Guru3D that a new beta, 9.00, was leaked today. Guess I have more driver testing for this weekend.

Had a 6950 PE OC that was a total failure with 12.4 whql drivers....crashed in every game inside 2 minutes.....
thought what the hell and installed these betas.......winning!
have a XFX HD 6950 2GB running max payne 3 on catalyst 12.4 whql and 12.6 BETA CAP1. Smooth performance at 1080p maxed out with FXAA. So I don't know whether they are all driver related.
