8.1 correct all the major bug of 8 so it's a great move.

From release note:
So i can imagine the driver will be separated like: Windows 7 x64 + windows 8.0 x64 and separetely, windows 8.1 for take advantage of the new WDDM driver.

You can always upgrade to W7 if you have problems with W8.1. I don't see what the problem is... ๐

You can always download the old drivers from AMD anyhow. I don't see any problem with this move. 8.1 is an all round improvement, I think that's a pretty safe comment. Yea, I had the same problem with downloading 8.1, the solution is you cancel the download attempt wait 5 mins and try again. Lolchops ๐

well w8.1 is the best windows os. And it is free from 8.0 so who needs support on 8.0 as all programs work just as well if not better on 8.1 -.-

Good move. 8.0 will be unsupported in around 30 days from now. I see nothing wrong with this.
At the workplace and at home 8.1 is working just fine.

So many "experts" and none of them realized that Win8.0 can't be updated to 8.1 on the Enterprise edition. It's even written in the news description. WTH?
