Conclusion

It looks like AMD/ATI's driver department is not sleeping at all. Indeed they managed to improve the performance by quite a margin. Mostly regarding DirectX 11 games. Keeping drivers up to date really makes sense as we saw a 15 percent improvement on average in games. And all the people who bought this card at launch had those drivers. It will be interesting to show the performance for the drivers inbetween in a further article.
