    Just tested this build and BFBC2 performed rather crappily on it, so I'm now going to revert back to 11.7.

    i think i will wait until Cat 11.9
    11.8 preview seems to be better in some cases!

    So this one has the newest 3D and CFX driver? Can anyone test Shogun 2 with these as I have a lot of flickering with the preview 11.8.

    I was looking forward to trying these after hearing about the improvements for 5xxx cards (especially the +30% MLAA) but after reading the known issues in the release notes (especially F1 2010 and Dirt 2) I'll probably give them a miss.

    Not the end of the world, I'll stick with 11.6, they seem good enough - life's too short to p*ss around with drivers.

    You unlocked it by agreeing to it... It's the same damn thing as the key where you agree to the conditions. Good grief.

    Installed here at 6770m and 11.8 in this version no longer has the option of viewing software update on CCC , it happened to someone else?

    As they've changed the overdrive, you can't even view it unless you accept the agreement, and as said above, accepting, also unlocks it, but if you untick the Enable AMD Overdrive box, that will re-lock it, as unticked, will only use your cards default clocks (or is it the other way around, i forget, as i have to use the old overdrive :p).

    I think its unticked that locks it again, but you can find out for sure, as if you just hover the mouse over the box, it will come up and tell you. :)

    CatalystCreator's twitter feed:
    "OGL 4.2 will be included officially in Catalyst later this year (for now if you want OGL 4.2, still with the Catalyst 4.2 beta driver)"

    "Official Catalyst 11.8 is newer than the 11.8 preview"

    As a frequent poster on Guru3D you should know this by now!

    Sorry for the spam, but I really need to know this. So I'll copy/paste my post:

    @asder00,

    you previously posted (http://forums.guru3d.com/showthread.php?t=347384) some MODIFIED 11.7b drivers, can you do that for these (v11.8 WHQL) as well? My videocard doesn't support the official drivers. :(

    Cheers!

    And during this time have you filled out a form at amd.com to let them know or send a message to CatalystCreator on twitter? You should do both to get this rectified instead of always depending on modded drivers. The Official should support your card as that was the promise AMD made when they began to provide mobility drivers.
