AMD Catalyst 11.11a Performance Driver

AMD szybko wydaje kolejne uaktualnienie do swoich sterowników, ale tym razem skupiając się na poprawieniu wydajności w grach. Driver ten właśnie dlatego nazwano Catalyst 11.11a Performance Driver, a w paczce tej znajdziemy całą gamę ostatnich poprawek dla takich tytułów, jak Batman: Arkham City, Rage, The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim oraz straszliwie "dziurawego" hitu, czyli Battlefield 3. Najwięcej poprawek producent przygotował dla Rage, gdzie można liczyć między innymi na eliminację błędów w wyświetlaniu tekstur i cieni. Sterownik możecie pobrać z linków: Windows 7 or Vista oraz Windows XP.
