AMD on Wednesday rolled out new Catalyst drivers for Radeon HD 2000, 3000, 4000, 5000, and 6000 series graphics cards, and Radeon 3000 and 4000 series chipsets. The new Catalyst 11.4 suite adds a handful of new features, such as new task-based Display Management controls, easier Eyefinity setup, and a new Catalyst update notification system that lets AMD graphics card owners know when updated drivers are available.

The latest release also boasts up to double digit performance gains in select games, including:

• Call of Duty Black Ops: gains of up to 15 percent with AA and AF on single GPU configurations
• Battleforge: gains of up to 15 percent with AA and AF on single and multiple GPU configurations
• Batman Arkham Asylum: gains of up to 20 percent with AA and AF on single and multiple GPU configurations
• Civilization V: gains of up to 15 percent on single and multiple GPU configurations
• Lost Planet 2: gains of up to 10 percent on single and multiple GPU configurations
• Aliens vs Predator: gains of up to 8 percent with AA and AF on single and multiple GPU configurations
• Far Cry 2: gains of up to 6 percent on single and multiple GPU configurations
• Just Cause 2: gains of up to 9 percent on single and multiple GPU configurations

A number of bug fixes come with the new driver package, one of which resolves an issue in Firefox 4 with hardware acceleration where the GPU would previously show high usage.
