At least for me CKII over Steam have problems with rendering water on r600g.
But on r600g with SB backend everything works ok (and even have less tearing compared to Catalyst).
Shame that it was not included
(Also Wine and Catalyst hate each other, how one could test some game over Wine to compare Catalys+Wine, r600g+Wine, and Win?)

It is good news the good performance of OpenSource drivers. It is a step forward for AMD to focus only on the radeon driver and forget fglrx. It makes no sense for AMD to some things be recommended "radeon" drivers and for other things to recommend the "fglrx" drivers. Now they have to work on better OpenCL OpenSource implementation.Last edited by YAFU; 03 August 2013, 09:03 AM.

in this case the biggest advantage is getting latest of version of drivers[lcarlier pkgbuild] and all depending libraries [arch rolling advantage] + KDE latest improvements, make your system silky smooth
