    Sounds like marketing BS. I will cut my left nut off when we start seeing CAP's release every week. And best not mention crossfire support lol.

    If AMD releases weekly CAP for new games, that would be great.

    We have CAP for 99% games,that was released :bang:
    So, it would be logical to assume, that it will be for new games...

    Theres a good article on the new Catalyst at another site, unfortunately can't link or anything though, so just Google amd catalyst software update preview, and its the 2nd one down eTek....... :)

    Funny thing i found was, it says they update the CAPs weekly, which is a load of balls, as ive only known them to come out monthly with the drivers!!!

    hehe, i expect much lower percentage tbh. since certain drivers just break things for drivers again.
    for instance 10.11 broke aa on darksiders again. might be more games which im not awear of.
    its a step in the right direction, but it could also backfire if the community notice they break more then they fix.
    the last few years with ati/amd proved that to me.

    There were 4 CAPs for the 10.11, so that gives reason to hope (not talking about those fixing any games of greater interest).

    Preview being released today, so is that meaning just the new CCC is the preview, and the actual driver will be the 10.12, as they also mention the 10.12 driver, also being released with the old CCC still (the one we got now), so that could be the proper driver, in which case, there would be no point downloading the preview, as its not a proper driver, but i guess, you could download the proper 10.12 driver on its own, and bung the previewed new CCC on it. :p

    Also..

    "Beside a significant facelift (which is available to Windows Vista/7 users), the new driver makes for simpler Catalyst software updates, with AMD promising weekly Catalyst Application Profile (CAP) releases to boost performance in games/apps, and includes support for the latest OpenGL update, version 4.1".
