Op de downloadsite van ATi zijn in de vorm van 4.12 final nieuwe Catalyst-stuurprogramma's te downloaden voor de videokaarten met een Radeon-chip aan boord. Een maand geleden kon de bètaversie van de 4.12-familie gedownload worden, nadat bekend werd dat de 4.11-release problemen gaf met bepaalde spellen in combinatie met PunkBuster. Deze release bevat een aantal bugfixes waarmee problemen opgelost worden in Half-Life 2, Doom 3 en Medal of Honor: Pacific Assault. Daarnaast zijn er ook een aantal aanpassingen doorgevoerd in de drivers zelf. Voor een uitgebreide lijst met veranderingen en known issues kan je terech in de release notes.
