XP x86/x64

Only difference I see from 8.10 is an updated OpenGL driver, newer CCC.

Includes support for AGP cards.

Driver Packaging Version 8.542-080930a-070249E-ATI
2D Driver Version 7.01.01.830
Direct3D Version 7.14.10.0618
OpenGL Version 6.14.10.8087
Catalyst® Control Center Version 2008.0930.2229.38458

Enjoy.

Wow, just after official 8.10 are released LOL! now that was FAST!

TY rflair, downloading

BiO · Oct 15, 2008, 06:47 PM

Thx rflair, i'm installing them now

=Mustang= · Oct 15, 2008, 06:59 PM

Ok, installed np's, heres the info i get on my end

I still see 115 OpenGL extensions, i thought maybe having a new OpenGL component there may have been more added, oh well.

Driver is nice and stable in Lock On Modern Air Combat: Flaming Cliffs 1.12 (the main app i always use to test)

Out of interest, does anyone else fly this sim? i'd love to see this get some proper support from AMD/ATI

Did you notice that Smartgart is not working for you?

IS that a driver issue or your card in particular?

I have never ever had Smartgart installed in any driver, its deliberate, i install the driver manually and allow it to use my nforce3 GART driver, has always worked much better that way

Nice, lightweight clean install, no CCC, just the driver and ATT for me

Granted I prefer something like USAF more than study sims but I like them all.

these ones dont install for me on vista64, gigabyte 4870. Installation goes as with any other drivers, but when i restart it says ccc can't start, no driver found. tried twice.oh well it doesnt have the far cry 2 fix anyways, still wanted to try it.

binormalkilla · Oct 19, 2008, 07:39 PM

Has anyone tested with 4850 CF in Vista x64 yet? Downloading now....hopefully these drivers will yield good results.
I'm currently running the Far Cry 2 hotfix drivers and they work great with Crysis Warhead.....however I heard this set gives gains up to %20 in Warhead..... we'll see I guess.

SepticFart · Oct 19, 2008, 09:50 PM

These fixed the problem I was having with CCC not working with 8.10, sweet!

Tarkin · Oct 20, 2008, 03:44 AM

I've tested these Driver and I have to say I am really IMPRESSED!

I get about 10% more fps in Crysis (1920, VeryHigh) - went from 20 to 22fps

about 5% more in COD4 (1920, max Details) -from 68 to 73fps

and about 45% more in Bioshock (1920, max Details) - from 70 to 100fps (!!)

WOW

(compared to the Farcry2 Hotfix!)

8.11 Cats will be AWESOME for Unreal Engine Games!!!

xsvcd · Oct 20, 2008, 09:54 AM

I tried the CAT 8.10 drivers and those did not correct the problem where some audio receivers are recognized as DVI devices instead of HDMI devices. The 8.10 drivers still recognize my Yamaha RX-V663 as a DVI device. Any idea if the Cat 8.11 drivers correct this issue?

binormalkilla · Oct 20, 2008, 11:53 PM

Well I installed and they run great....I don't have a really good quantitative comparison, but Warhead seems to run much faster......around 3-5 FPS more or so at 1920x1080, enthusiast (shadows and particles on gamer), 2xAA.

spajdr · Oct 21, 2008, 05:09 AM

adaptive antialiasing is still bugged in world of warcraft and warhammer online, probably in other games too.

do these fix the issue with BiA -hh?? (level with rain -textures dropping out etc).

at gearbox forums it is reported that this is a driver issue and the fix is going to be included in either 8.11 or 8.12.

spyre · Oct 26, 2008, 09:51 AM

This driver isnt 8.11 Catalyst.
