Following the release of the AMD Catalyst 11.11a drivers a couple of weeks ago, another performance update is available adding CrossFire performance scaling for the AMD Radeon HD 5000 series in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim.

Relating to Skyrim, the AMD Catalyst 11.11c performance driver also includes all updates from the previous driver, improving performance by 2 to 7 percent on single GPU configurations and resolving corruption seen when enabling Multi-Sample Anti-Aliasing on the AMD Radeon HD 6970 Series.

This latest addition also fixes a number of issues in Assassin's Creed Revelations, Batman Arkham City, RAGE and Battlefield 3.

The drivers include the following features:

Assassin’s Creed: Revelations

11.11a were way too hot for my CF5870s. I may try the C variant but I've had too good results with the standard 11.11 to switch unless there's a real benefit.
Good to see AMD responding to the latest games. A couple of the newer games on that list have already gained notoriety over their graphical bugs.

With games being as big as a dual-layer DVD, nowadays, however, I can understand (or maybe I can't) the difficulties in maintaining that much code.
