This is weird, they haven't even launched the official 10.1 yet. Are you sure they're 10.2 beta? The link, while in another language, only mentions 10.1... though I can't compare the screenshots of the driver versions since I don't have the 10.1 beta installed.

10.1 are back from WHQL certification and will be released this week. These are likely the beta that will become 10.2.

Are they better than the 10.1s ?

I didn't even bother with 10.1. Installed the first 10.2 betas, then the next day these leaked and went right to them. Honestly I dont recall the last set of WHQL drivers I've used with my HD5870.

On another note - ATI has confirmed and it working on a hotfix driver for the grey screen crashes.

This has me excited- http://www.tomshardware.com/news/ATI-Grey-Screen-Fix-5870,9549.html

did they fix the problem with a 3rd monitor not going to sleep in 10.2? They introduced the issue in 10.1

nothing has been mentioned about that yet.

Or that... I only have one monitor. I'd report it through their feedback form.

I did, and there was mention for the 10.1 on game.amd.com boards.
