GPU-z reporting my Radeon 7850 as having DirectX11.2 support?

Google & AMD's site says it supports 11.1, so what's going on lol?

Here's a screenshot of GPU-z..

No problem lol. I'd just read in multiple places that the 77xx/78xx/79xx series only supported DX 11.1, like here - http://www.amd.com/uk/products/desktop/graphics/7000/7850/Pages/radeon-7850.aspx#3

usually when there is new directx version there will be new hardware needed for the feature. but it seems DX11.2 did not need new hardware.
