AMD Catalyst baru saja me-release driver terbaru mereka, yaitu AMD Catalyst 12.1 WHQL, yang preview-nya sudah ada sejak bulan Desember 2011 kemarin. Pada preview-nya dapat disimpulkan bahwa versi ini dapat bekerja dengan optimal dan stabil, namun implementasi baru dari AMD yaitu assign profile untuk tiap games ala Nvidia masih belum sempurna, karena terdapat bug di mana tidak semua game dapat dijalankan. Untuk mengembalikan default setting-nya, gamers harus melakukan reset ke factory setting-nya dengan memilih pilihan “restore to factory default” untuk mengembalikan setting awalnya secara sempurna. mudah-mudahan saat driver WHQL di realease, masalah-masalah tersebut tidak gamers alami lagi.
