Remember, it's what's inside the driver that counts.

From my perspective, this driver fixes a few things that need to be fixed but doesn't address some issues that are a problem for some users. The grey screen issue as well as the 2D screen tearing problem hasn't been resolved which is sure to be brought up again and again particularly with a driver that is billed as a "bug fixer".

As for those of you hoping for substantially increased performance when going from one driver to the next on single GPU solutions, forget it. From my experience it doesn't happen unless there are performance issues to begin with. With cards like the HD 5970 and Crossfire setups, there will naturally be advances due to the tweaking of dual card profiles but other than that, I haven't seen any change in performance from the beta drivers that were released with the HD 5870 and HD 5850.
