Download the unofficial AMD Catalyst 13.2 BETA driver

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. This display driver supports Windows Vista/Windows 7/Windows 8.

With this driver, these products offer 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 that you have Microsoft .Net 4 framework installed, not included in this download. Should you need it, you can grab it here.

Thanks to ZealotKi11er over at overclock.net for this driver. We had a bit of doubt wether not to post and host this driver as it is very much in BETA stages. So please 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.

"THE LEAKED BETA 13.2 IS AN UNFINISHED DRIVER SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED TO TEST FRAME LATENCY, WITH NO FINAL QA COMPLETED ON ANYTHING ELSE IN THE DRIVER. PLUS OTHER GOODIES INTENDED FOR THE REAL 13.2 ARE MISSING. DO NOT INSTALL IT IF YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE CONCEPT BETA."

Just so that we are clear on that ok ? Beta ...
