AMD is always working hard to make its drivers better for its graphics card customers. With the introduction of version 12.8 Catalyst Application Profiles (CAP), expect AMD cards to perform better in CrossFireX across a wide selection of the latest games.

It is also expected that AMD will release Catalyst driver package version 12.9 at some stage next week which should bring some welcome performance boosts for HD 7000 series graphics cards as well as bug fixes for older series graphics cards.
