I definitely think they could of refined the PC version a lot more.:shadedshu
I installed these drivers cuz the old ones ran RAGE like shit (I have a 6850). Well it runs fine now (besides freezing at loading screens every once in awhile), but game play is smooth. Only one problem... Games that utilize OpenGL don't work... Games like Amnesia: The Dark Descent and Minecraft. Hell, even Doom 3... every time I try to boot them, my pc will lock up, screen will go black, and come back because my drivers stopped working and then recovered (which yes is the error message I get). All better though once I go back to the 11.9 drivers! What a pain in the ass... I hope new drivers come out soon lol. Anyone else run into this problem?
