Not so dead, ATI 5.7+ Driver problems...

It seems from this post http://www.gamespot.com/pc/driving/n...903&pid=927142

that the good old ATI 5.7+ driver bug has reared its ugly head back into mainstream gameing. I just got the game about 3 hours ago and was having no problems. About 20 minutes into the game, I find the FPS droping down to crap. While this isnt the same thing as the previous bug that was found in games like DOW and BOS, this new bug seems to only be evident in drivers 5.7 and higher.

Is there a chance that ATI can release like a 5.6 driver that has just the bug fixes of 5.11 and the opengl driver but not the other stuff (Mem optimization) that could be causeing the problems?
