Meh, pointless for me to update on my 5850
The 5870 showed some improvements. Your 5850 should as well.
Tweaktown's analysis shows small gains here and there.

It's interesting. From the beginning it was assumed that since VLIW4 was the newer arch, it would have the most to gain from drivers. At least with these, the 6870 (old VLIW5) got the greatest improvement. It's not the first time for the 6800 series to see good gains either.
