What I find ironic is that Dirt2 comes bundled with the new ATI cards...

I am just going to wait for 9.12 drivers to be released. 9.11 are terrible on my PC playing Borderlands, and they still haven't seemed to fix it yet. Heck, come to think of it, 9.10 is screwing with me in Left 4 Dead 2 as well (although it just might be the game, and not the drivers).

Unlikely it seems to only fix a Crossfire issue.
