AMD Releases Catalyst 14.12 Omega Software
AMD released Catalyst 14.12 Omega, its annual feature-set upgrading driver update. This driver introduces new video image quality enhancement features, game image-quality enhancements, and a usual load of game-specific performance updates, and bug-fixes. Features that stand out include Virtual Super Resolution, which is essentially identical in function to NVIDIA's Dynamic Super Resolution, which lets you "simulate" higher game display resolutions than your display is capable of; and frame-pacing improvements that make certain games seem more fluid.
Among the video quality enhancements are Fluid Motion Video, which adds fluidity to Blu-ray playback using PowerDVD 14, Video Contour Removal, which removes artifacts from compressed video, 1080p detail enhancement, and a brand new 1080p to 4K video upscaling algorithm, which reduces upscaling artifacts. Game specific performance improvements target Batman: Arkham Origins, Bioshock Infinite, Call of Duty: Ghosts, Grid 2, Sniper Elite III, and Rome: Total War, among others. AMD is promising up to 19 percent performance improvement, compared to, and we kid you not, Catalyst 13.12. Grab the driver from the link below.

oh well
EDIT: Going to the drop down menu and manually selecting Athlon series gives the correct file. Running 3dmark
Also something reset my tray icons so that most were not shown.
This Just 14.11.beta 2 as 14.12 i Take it ? Someone using a TV as monitor let me know if the color saturation is not working still at 1650x1080 and below,What i mean is the color saturation greys out no sharp crisp clear colors below 1980 res.
..anyone remembers Omega drivers for ATi? They still exist btw.
It's also not not updated for years.
I was using those drivers back then because I believed they were doing something. Thinking about it now, it was probably mostly placebo (but nowhere near what PAX "drivers" are :p).
