Posted by Hilbert Hagedoorn on: 01/18/2013 06:40 PM | 252 comment(s) ]
You can now download the unofficial AMD Catalyst 13.2 BETA driver as it was posted all over the web. This unofficial AMD Catalyst 13.2 BETA 12.100.0 driver is compatible with AMD Radeon HD 5000, HD 6000 and HD 7000 Series graphics cards.
With this driver, these products offer full support for WDDM 1.2, which is an updated model for graphics drivers that Microsoft has developed to ensure smooth performance and wide compatibility in their new operating system.
This driver requires the a Microsoft .Net 4 installation, not included in this download.
Build Info:
- 12.10-130101a-151427E-ATI
- DriverVer=01/01/2013, 12.100.0.0000
- Catalyst: 13.2
- CCC: 2013.0101.2208.39702
- 3D: 9.14.10.0960
- OGL: 6.14.10.12115
- OCL: 10.0.1124.2
We had a bit of doubt wether not to post this driver as it is very much in BETA stages. So pelase understand what you are dealing with. However we figured its better to download these drivers from Guru3D.com (where we test the binaries) then on the multiple dodgy file sharing hosts this driver has been launched on.

I take it this driver still doesn't incorporate the memory controller rewrite?

It is, actually. Hopefully it works with your card though.

I've played GW2 and BF3 with these drivers and so far they are really smooth, particularly in GW.
No issues thus far and running better than the 13.1's.

This must be the early unfinished 13.2 beta they sent to techpowerup etc.
I'll wait for the finished 13.2 beta that will show up in coming weeks, I'm in no hurry. I'm in fact mostly interested in 13.3/13.4 when they've implemented the rewritten memory management engine.

GW2 :
1) acting laggy (i see 45+ fps but i feel like i have 18-22 fps) for me as all the drivers starting with 12.9 but those are the worst of them
2) got a white rectangle in the map loading screen (never got such thing so far with other drivers)
3) white flicker in the area where i usualy check
4) slow loaded some textures (posible not an driver issue but i can't be sure)
1) & 2) made me think that those driver are not really ready
3) & 4) can be a driver issue, can also be an issue with gw2 engine (that's not a great one)
