Catalyst 7.1
 

New Features

This release of the ATI Catalyst™ Software Suite includes Crossfire™ enhancements that enable the Alternate Frame Rendering (AFR) Crossfire rendering mode by default so that users will see significant performance benefits across all AFR compatible applications immediately (including newly released applications, so users do not have to wait for a future ATI Catalyst™ release to add Crossfire™ support for newly released titles). Future ATI Catalyst™ releases will add further Crossfire™ performance gains once new applications have been profiled specifically for Crossfire™.

Jupi, nabijem ih. Što misle s WDM i Vistom? Kak da ja snimam dnevnik???

Ne radi mi Ati overdrive ni s ovim novim drajverima :(

Da, stvarno su blentavi što se toga tiče. Nema ni WDM drivera, a ni MMC se ne može instalirat, ako ne stavim compatibility mod. Nadam se da će to srediti do sljedećeg mjeseca.

Stvarno bolesno :fuming: insatalira sam ove nove drivere i nemogu pomicati slider bar u CCC-u.Prije instalacije drivera očistio san registre i deinstalira stare drajvere

Enable Ati overdrive je izbljeđeno!?:confused:
Evo jedna zanimljiva stvar iz registra :

Izgleda da ću morat reinstalirat windowse : flyingey

Tak ti je i kod mene. Ista stvar.

I da, *ebo MMC. Gori komad softa nisam vidio.

Ne vidim je li itko komentirao, pa cu ja prvi, unatoc usprkos mnogim greskama koje mi izbaci svaki put pri instalacija drivera i ccc-a, moram priznati da sam primjetio znacajno ubrzanje otvaranja CCC-a u usporedbi sa 6.12 driverima. Neznam sad jel to samo kod mene, ali lijepo je za vidjet ;)

Da ponovimo znanje- tko koristi CCC zaslužuje sve kaj ga snađe:)
Mislim da su samo driveri i ATT puno bolja kombinacija.

:smoke: Nabijem te, ajd ti pod Vistom

Ma, nabijem ja tebe:p
Tko te tjero da moraš imat "prvi u selu" Vistu?

Evo ti ga sad...

bdw-kaj ne bi trebao raditi VIVO sa driverima koji dolaze sa Vistom kao što su pričali?

Hehe, problem je u tome što s Vistom ne dolaze nikakvi dodatni driveri, samo oni zaduženi za D3D...

Ček, ček, ček....

pod vistom MORAS imat catalyst control center? Nikako bez?

@Tor, Jelc: nemojte se nabijat, za to imate iskricu :D

Ne moraš, ali to je trenutno jedini način za podešavanje nekih naprednijih stvari osim rezolucije, dubine boja i refresh ratea...

Driveri u Visti postoje-ali samo Theater 550 serija radi ok.

dobro a kakve su razlike u performansama, ako ih uopće ima

http://www.technic3d.com/?site=artic...=article&a=436 tu je usporedba performansi od 6.6 pa do 7.1

I da, moraš imati CCC ako želiš recimo TV-out. Ili malo prčkati po 3D-u.

Još jedna usporedba performansi:
http://www.tweaktown.com/articles/10...sis/index.html

CCC? : nono :, mene više nervira kaj lijeni omega nebu nove drivere izbacio do sljedeće prestupne.

A pošto vidim da opet nekj ne štima sdriverima ću ja fino svoju 1950xt ganjat i dalje s 6.12, i živjet u nadi d abu nekaj bilo od novih omegi.

6.12? Slabo ti to.. ja imam 5.12 :) lol
imam stari 9800SE modan u PRO (uostalom pise u sigu) i vis emanje ne igram nis osim Guild Warsa pa mi ni ne treba nis moderno i jako... a kolko znam to je zadnja verzija bez CCCa (iskreno ni neam pojma..presto sam se zamarat driverima..nema smisla..svaki mjesec ista prica).. i radi savrseno.. benchmarkovi me ne hebu pol posto..

Ma pogotovo za starije kartuše tipa 9800. No, CCC pod Vistom i CCC pod Xp nemaju veze jedno s drugim. Dva totalno različita softa.

Ma mene samo zanima stabilnost.. nekakve aplikacije mi ne trebaju.. a ak oce "prckat po slici" imam ATI Tray Tools..

Jel se moze uopce danas samo dobit DRIVERE? A ne cijeli paket? Dakle onaj INF file i sta vec ide s njim (tak da napraivm samo UPDATE) .. pogotovo samo za jedan model graficke.. hebo ih paket od 50MB.....kome to sve treba...

Može,samo driveri su oko 12mb i možeš ih skinuti na Ati-evoj stranici.

Mene bas zanima kakvi su driveri za nVidiu ,nemam nista iskustva s tim grafama pa me bas zanima dali se i oni zale kao i mi ? nevidim bas thredova te tematike : lol2 : ...
A valjda smo mi Ati fanovi osudeni na vjecno za***avanje s tim driverima , dosao Amd ,umjesto da je bolje jos je GORE ! :beer:

Tjah, šta misliš da su i oni neka sreča, pogotovo od kad su dobili novi control panel. Nije neka sreča, vjeruj.

Sasvim sam zadovoljan sa ovim novim driverima..i da imaju 12mb bez onih control panela..preporuka..barem netrebate čekati taj ***eni load kod startupa---oni koji imaju 512 znaju o čem pričam :)

:D:D
i mene ! Trenutno gulim po Omegi 3.8.291 (6.9 Catalyst) a kako mi sve radi ko pupa necu mijenjat dok lijeni omega ne izbaci nove ;)

Vidim da su svasta promjenili na ATI.com od kad sam ja zadnji put bio tam :)
pocevsi od ovog Driver Findera pa do onog 12MB downloada... sve u svemu nije lose :)

Još ako mi se sa 7.1 prestane WoW rušit..gdje bi mi bio kraj onda..: lol2 : , zasipao sam Blizzard tako i tako sa tonom prigovora..hehe...na račun 2.0.3 i 2.0.4 patcheva..koji izazivaju blank screen,XP freeze

Navode se najnoviji driveri,i isključivanje Fast writesa kao rješenje crasheva..vidjet ćemo..jel 7.1 to uspjela riješiti..:beer:
