I'm using the latest WHQL 12.3 and 12.3 CAP 1. What resolution are you at? Right now I'm at 1920x1200 using all medium quality settings with 4xMSAA, Post High, HBAO and no blur. I prefer absence of jaggies to higher quality settings and FPS locked at 60. Things are running really smooth and I'm going to start to ratchet the settings to high~ultra and see how the rates hold up.
Using WHQL 12.3's with 12.3 CAP1 on 7970 CFx and it's running quite well at 2560x1440 Ultra with 4xSSAA and no FXAA enabled.
Looks bloody amazing too.
So you set super sampling in CCC and then what do you set in BF3?
I'm honestly not real clear on how deferred and post related to FXAA etc...
I'm actually wondering the same thing. I've tried the 12.3 WHQL and the 2clocks are broken so I refuse to use them. Same with the 12.4 betas. I'm running 12.x beta 8.950.5 software version. Seems to run the best and 2D clocks are still working.

Whats wrong with the 2d clocks on 12.3? I am not seeing anything out of behavior there but maybe I am missing something.
Overall I am just not impressed with the speed or feel of BF3 with the 7970 so far. It just doesn't feel "smooth" no matter what I do. Even though my FPS was lower 2 x 6770 and 2 x 550 TI FELT better. I really can't even describe my "problem" but I just know it doesn't feel right. I am getting a weird "lag/input" hesitation randomly that I can't get to fully go away for one. I get some screen tearing here or there but its very minimal.
It might have something to do with MSI afterburner. Are you overclocking with CCC?
edit:
I got 2D clocks works. I disabled the Unofficial overclocking in the config file and added -xcl in the MSI Afterburner shortcut target and it asked me to reboot. Once I rebooted, 2D clocks were working again. Obviously the Unofficial Overclocking was messing everything up.
I was able to get AB playing nicely with 12.3 following some instructions using XCL instead of the "unofficial overclock".
My memory will not go to 1600. At 1600 @ 1.2v BF3 and Heaven crash, Furmark will run.
Best I can get is 1175/1575 @ 1.2v, not impressed.
Tried 1175/1575 @ 1.95v and crashed again. Tried 1.9v @ 1150/1550 crashed.
Are you using manual fan?
Yeah, during testing I had it at 100%.
Heaven just crashed on me at 1175/1575 @ 1.2v *sigh*.
