Youre the noob. He means he tried the 7000 series driver and they were bad for him, so these would be too given the same d3d version.

Haven't tried those yet so might give these a shot myself.

EPIC LOL for you. Do you think i play 3D games with 2d driver or opengl driver? In 3D games,drivers using 3D driver. This driver is same or similiar for the 7000hd driver.Maybe there is some new profile. If will see test and they will be better,i will say sorry for you.

The Direct3D version is EXACTLY the same, hence people posting 3D Mark results that are EXACTLY the same. I think its you who needs to brush up their understanding of driver 'packages'. The 'package' contains D3D driver, CCC, 2D driver, OGL driver, eyefinity driver, and the compute drivers amognst others. Each individual driver can only effect its target applications.

Unless there's specific fixes (like CF profiles for particular games) there's no reason to think these will perform any differently than the 7000 series driver.

Just tested these with BF3; no glitches or anything, but performance isn't as good as Nov 18th. Switching back now...
