    For me the Catalyst 13.8 beta2 drivers have been working nicely.
    I found that if you don't use the beta drivers with the HD 7850 it makes the game unplayable in almost every setting except bare minimum, however with the beta drivers I was easily able to run maximum @ 60 fps with a single 7850.

    Yes, I found exactly the same thing. If you read what is different with the current beta drivers, it will say something like 'improved crossfire compatibility with FFXIV:ARR'. Using the current formal release version I found that I was crashing constantly. But with the beta it is pretty smooth and I expect when it goes non-beta it should be even better.
