Has anyone tried these?

Are there any performance increases?

What is it supposed to do?

Read the guide.

There's performance increases, but not for gaming, for that, there's a slight decrease.

No performance increase for sure ! I just try the FreeFireGL drivers with my 9700pro and my games couldn't just run ! So i get back to 4.9 beta...
Some new options appeared in the CP but nothing interesting for a gamer like me...
