AMD geeft altijd het jaar en de maand van uitgave mee aan de Catalyst-drivers en heeft nu dus versie 11.3 klaarstaan. De drivers zijn beschikbaar voor Windows XP, Vista en 7, met aparte downloads voor 32- en 64bit-omgevingen. De nieuwe drivers zijn geschikt voor alle Radeon-modellen vanaf de HD 2400-serie.
