14 DAY TRIAL // AMD already said that it was giving up the costly habit of releasing monthly new versions of its well-famed Catalyst driver suite, but it seems to have forgotten the users of the Radeon HD 2000, HD 3000 and HD 4000 series of cards.
The new version only supports cards that are newer than the HD 5000 series, which is quite a letdown for other AMD graphic card buyers.
AMD Catalyst 12.6 is WHQL-certified and will bring some performance improvements for HD 7000 users, along with new application profiles.
For Tri-Crossfire users, the AMD CAT 12.6 solves many of the BSOD issues, and for the HD 6000 users it brings better stability and Crossfire scaling.
One important point is that AMD Catalyst 12.6 WHQL also brings AMD Dual-Graphics improvements for AMD’s Radeon HD 7660D and HD 7560D iGPUs inside the AMD A-Series Trinity APUs.
The Trinity APUs get application profiles for Diablo 3, Elder Scrolls: Skyrim, Starcraft 2, Portal 2, Call of Duty Modern Warfare and Black Ops.
The new drivers are available here.
