Default 8.70 (Catalyst 10-1 BETA)



http://www.megaupload.com/?d=F2ITECGD

Win7/Vista x86/x64

Everyone should do a custom install and chose not to install 'Theater Driver', if you did just go to Control Panel and delete the device, unless you have some sort of ATI capture/tv device.

Thanks go to GamingArena at Guru3D.

I see a performance increase in Eve Online.

From about 300 fps in station to about 360 fps

Are these worth messing around with for a few days until the official drivers get released?

also never noticed WebPam before, apparently its from Promise

http://www.promise.com/product/produ...product_id=141

Web-based Promise Array Management
a Web-based application that locally or remotely manages the EX4650 Disk Array Controller provided by Promise

Hmm I'm no tto up to date on AMD motherboards but I wonder if someone who is versed in AMD server products might be able to answer that one. Maybe it has something to do with an as of yet unreleased AMD mobo ? Seems weird that AMD would include a 3rd party application unless they (AMD) are going to intergrate it into one of their products.

Heres a promise card with the above chipset
Promise SuperTrak EX4650 - Storage controller (RAID) - 4 Channel
Promise SuperTrak EX4650 8 Port SATA/SAS RAID Controller

Hmm also noticed there are drivers and Raid support for the as of yet UNRELEASED 800 series southbridge (RAIDXpert_SB8xx)

and lastly DnDTranscode for Windows 7..

Drag N Drop transcode !!!

They did not work at all for me. The sceen blanks out at any 3d game/app, so I could not run any benchmarks or games. They do install correctly though.

WebPAM is for managing your RAID Array on any AMD Chipset. It came with my SB600 MoBo. This is nothing new.

Drag&Drop Transcode is in the driver package for a few months now. Well, at least for the HD 5k cards.

ahh never really noticed either of those before, in particular the DnDTranscode, probally because atm I'm in Vista. I never bothered installing the AMD Raid drivers or software as it was way to limited, I wanted to have Raid on SATA 1 and 2 but use a DVD on SATA 3 and a lone HD on SATA 4.. seems the AMD SB750 only allows an all or nothing approach to software raid. (Another reason I miss using the Abit AT8-32.. ULI+ATI). Any idea why the Promise Raid management software is included ? And does the DnD transcode use the GPU or is it another Avivo (CPU) encoder ?

Oh and I suppose being that you are a Beta Crew (tester) you are probably covered under NDA and would not be able to discuss what the Profile Application is for exactly right ? though if I was to receive an anonymous email at s.k.flynn(AT)gmail(DOT)com I wouldn't object ;-)

The drivers do not support Crossfire, I ran into the same issue last night. Stick with the 9.12 Hotfix.

AMD has supplied us with a document giving information on the improvements that will be implemented over the course of the next months in Catalyst drivers:

- CrossFire X profiles per application will now be in a separate XML file that it will be possible to update independently of the driver itself
- ATI CrossFire X with PowerPlay for the Radeon 5x00s: reduced energy consumption of additional cards
-AMD Dual Graphics: Possibility of combining performances of the IGP of the RS880 with the forthcoming entry level GPUs from the Cedar and Park ranges.
- 3D Stereoscopics: Update of the D3D driver so as to allow third party firms such as IZ3D to use their 3D solution with 120 Hz screens. Support for Bit Cauldron glasses.
- Eyefinity: Bezel Management
- Better GPU acceleration in Windows 7 Video Converter
- Support for DisplayPort Audio (already in the 9.12 hotfix)
- If laptop manufacturers allow it, possibility of installing the Catalysts on a laptop in Vista and 7
- Improvement of 2D performance in Linux
- Support for Ubuntu 9.10 and OpenSUSE 11.2
