"Tearing is no longer observed on the third screen in 3x1 and 1x3 Eyefinity configurations."

That's a really big deal. It's the reason I went for these giant 3-slot Asus cards. Hopefully it really is fixed!
 
This driver suite caused sleep on my computer to malfunction; computer would sleep but upon waking no video signal was output. Reboots would often not fixed it; would have to discharge the capacitors on the mobo and then restart.

Rolled back to 12.2 and installed 12.3 and it worked fine. A LOT of other people are having issues with this release and HDMI as well.
