There's nothing in the release notes for that driver about a performance boost in Skyrim at all. It's merely meant for W8 testing purposes as it says. How you can justify criticizing it for not offering a satisfactory SLI boost in the game is absurd really.
There's simply not enough known about W8 yet to determine if it will be as good for gaming as W7. From all indications so far, they are prioritizing it as a tablet OS, so I wouldn't count on it being optimized for gaming.
If you want to prioritize tablet performance in the OS you choose, fine, just don't expect stellar gaming performance. Everyone knows MS doesn't give a crap about PC gaming like they pretend to. So when they come out with a tablet OS, it's pretty much obvious gaming performance will be the last priority.
