Better gaming is just a matter of loading the right AMD profiles

Here's the latest news in the AMD-powered gaming world: new CrossFireX profiles are now ready for download in the shape of the AMD Catalyst Application Profiles 12.9 CAP 1.

The new profiles come in an .exe file so installing them is a really easy task. The new software addresses DX9 and DX11 systems and brings performance fixes and eliminates some reported corruption scenarios.

Enabling CrossFire with high settings in World of Warcraft – Mist of Pandaria (DX9 and DX11) often resulted in texture flickering. DX9 systems used to show some corruption when enabling Anti-Aliasing through the AMD Control Center (instead of application settings); at the same time, the performance issues with 64-bit clients seem to have been gotten rid of.

Finally, Tribes Ascend and F1 2012 get enhanced performance in CrossFire mode and reported flickering issues are now gone.
