what driver issues? i have yet to see gaming related drivers issues...
launch day games i've tried with no issues on my 5870 include BF3 (includling "paid beta"), Sup Com 2, Starcraft 2a, Portal 2, Crysis 2 trial, NFS: Shift, Metal Gear Rising, Borderlands 2, Skyrim*, Train Simulator 2014* (* = launch + 1 month)
only issues i've had were a few demoscene nvidia-favoring demos and bitcoin-related OpenCL driver combinations.
