Catalyst 8.80 Modded Win7/Vista x86/x64

rflair · Dec 10, 2010, 05:19 AM

Modded Driver,

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=62SAYMCZ

Modded from a chipset driver on AMD's site, http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownloa...ndows_all.aspx .

Thr0tt · Dec 10, 2010, 06:09 AM

Oohh so it looks different, lets hope they havent spent all this time just changing the CCC.

Dyre Straits · Dec 10, 2010, 06:39 AM

I still don't get a checked box for OpenCL in GPU-Z. What gives?

This version does look different but it's only a surface difference, I believe. Once checking out the options, it's all very familiar.

u guys seeing any performance gains with this driver?

Galmok · Dec 10, 2010, 11:28 AM

They don't seem to have learned much. Granted the menu on the left side is appreciated, but the main frame is simply too big. The whole window seems to have grown 30% in width and 25% in height and in fact they could have reduced the window that much from what it is now.

Why oh why does CCC have to occupy so much screen space when they don't use it for anything except uniformly coloured areas.

In the CCC we have now, i can see all 3d options but i have to manually scroll (scrollwheel doesnt work in CCC). If its big enough to see all the 3d options then theres a reason to why its bigger.

No. Does it matter? I do have some education regarding GUI design and AMD obviously does not (or chooses to ignore it). It seems they let the programmers decide the GUI. Looking beyond what I read on the web, I haven't heard any of my friends express any appreciation over the design of CCC, in fact they do complain about it (poor design, loads very slow; pretty much my grievances, too). They also have been given some education regarding the design of good user interface and 1-2 of them even teach it.

stevvie · Dec 11, 2010, 05:12 AM

I thought I was the only one who thought that there was just too much space wasted in the CCC, A little information box surrounded by more plain colour than the information box takes up.

Korrigan · Dec 12, 2010, 07:58 AM

Be careful when installing this, it can completely screw up your windows installation. All my USB ports stopped working, bugged in registry. I had to make a system restore.

So be sure to ONLY install the display drivers - nothing else

If you want OpenCL, download the "AMD Catalyst™ Accelerated Parallel Processing (APP) Technology Edition". It's the catalyst driver suite with OpenCL support. Newest revision is Catalyst 10.11 (8.791.0.0) on AMD's site.

You're talking about the old CCC, not the new, correct?

shane_p · Dec 12, 2010, 03:26 PM

well I don't like u cannot access all 3D settings at once,
u gotta like on anti-alias, click, click, then anti-alias mode, click ,click, click

it would be nice to have all in a nice scroll down list, heck everything in 1 long list if u chose

spyre · Dec 12, 2010, 05:16 PM

Its re-sizable so you can make it longer and access them all at once.

wasnt there an 'all settings' button that does this?

caveman-jim · Dec 12, 2010, 08:28 PM

always has been

Sasquach · Dec 12, 2010, 09:27 PM

How come ATI doesnt put more graphics settings in these?

Like you got the typical Mipmap/Anti Alias/ Vsync/Cat AI, Then theres only one option in OpenGL (Triple buffering). There used to be some geometry instancing thingy in what used to be a Direct3D option (Which has since been removed for awhile).....
They could probably add an extension limiter thing in the OpenGL options.

I mean they could streamline some of the settings into one to couldnt they....why is there Anti-Aliasing (filtering) and Anti-Aliasing (Method) separated?

And for those with Crossfire, im sure they would have loved to be able to play around with the scissor/AFR/supertiling methods.

spyre · Dec 12, 2010, 09:51 PM

GI is enabled by default so no need to alter it so no setting in the CCC. Extension limits are set another way and not required in the CCC either. No you couldn't really combine the AA with AAA & SSAA.

I had already tried that route prior to installing these. 10.11s do not have support for HD 6870 anyway. I tried other suggestions made by c/j and those didn't work, either. OpenCL IS working, however, by testing apps that use it. I'm just stumped as to why the check box remains empty in the newest GPU-Z?

spyre · Dec 13, 2010, 05:46 AM

It would be upto the GPU-z author to sort out.

Hardwood · Dec 13, 2010, 06:18 AM

I tried these yesterday.
WARNING: MAKE A RESTORE POINT beforehand.

The new CCC just can't figure out displays. Using the "identify" command was either not working or showing odd results especially between the DP and HDMI monitors. This totally screws up profiles that change screen configs to eyefinity, extended and single display settings.
Worst case scenario was trying to get back to single screen and it left me with no screens.

Fortunately it came back after a forced restart.

Also the left menu when iconified is almost impossible to use when going for one of it's submenus.
Not withstanding the above issue, I like the new menu system.

As for how well the 8.80 driver worked, well I only got to play TW2008 before exasperation over the displays forced a removal.

RanCorX2 · Dec 13, 2010, 07:52 AM

I've been running Eyefinity 3x1 portrait for a week without issues. Two DVI monitors + Active DP-DVI adapter. I need to get some DP cables

The oppinions of CCC I have heard from my friends are from the current/old one. The one presented in this thread from which I have only seen screenshots doesn't look much better. Worse in screen space usage and how it uses it, better in that it has reintroduced the menu at the side (which was present way back but was removed).

caveman-jim · Dec 13, 2010, 02:06 PM

OK, Gotcha.

Well, the new one is now available for download - check it out and try it, see what you think; let us know

FWIW, I just installed the official 10.12s and the checkmark is now present in GPU-Z. So, it wasn't the fault of GPU-Z, apparently.

I would have tried it, but I needed the OpenCL driver so I downloaded the package with the OpenCL driver (is more important to me than CCC).

Worst case scenario was trying to get back to single screen and it left me with no screens. Fortunately it came back after a forced restart. Also the left menu when iconified is almost impossible to use when going for one of it's submenus. Not withstanding the above issue, I like the new menu system. As for how well the 8.80 driver worked, well I only got to play TW2008 before exasperation over the displays forced a removal. __________________ <---Computer #1 in System Specs Button Computer#2) Asus A8V-D, Athlon 64 X2 4200+, Enermax 465p, Sapphire AGP 1950pro, 2x1 gig mushkin, Win8pro x86
