AMD Releases 11.10 Drivers With Official 5x1 Support

AMD today released the final version of its Catalyst/Vision 11.10 drivers. Gamers who have been playing Battlefield 3 or Rage with Radeon HD graphics cards may be running a preview driver variant of 11.10, but if you have preview 2 or earlier, you'll want to update to the final version.

Besides being essential for running Battlefield 3 and Rage at their best, the new 11.10 software finally brings in official support for the Eyefinity 5x1 configuration. What's so great about this? A handful of screens, but no bezel right in the middle. Check out some of the videos below:
