No changes to wildlands sli profile then :-/

edit , nvm I read on seems they did

Yeah it's not listed under the 378.78 notes and instead it's under the full 378.xx changes in that PDF since Wildlands support was part of a earlier 378.xx driver already from what I've read.

(378.66 - http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=231683934&postcount=38 )
(Newer drivers can still contain further optimizations or tweaks of course.)

Which would be amusing if that was the case since there's like 10 DX12 games at the moment lol.
