CrossFireX™ (Quad) Support 3 or 4 GPUs in CrossFireX™ Mode

This release of Catalyst™ introduces CrossFireX™ Quad support. Users with any combination of a ATI Radeon™ HD 3870, ATI Radeon™ HD 3850, and ATI Radeon™ HD 3870 X2 graphics accelerators running with 3 or 4 GPUs will be able to run in CrossFireX™ Quad mode (when used in a CrossFireX™ compatible PC). CrossFireX™ Quad will deliver significant performance improvements in a number of applications. Users can expect to see further DirectX 10 QUAD CrossFireX™ performance improvements in future Catalyst™ releases.

Users are now able to run in CrossFireX™ (Quad) mode while running in extended desktop mode on the Windows Vista desktop Note: CrossFireX™ (Quad) is only supported under the Windows Vista operating system

Hybrid™ Graphics Support

This release of Catalyst™ introduces Hybrid™ Graphics support. Hybrid™ Graphics delivers a significant 3D performance boost for systems featuring an AMD 780G integrated graphics motherboard and an ATI Radeon™ HD 3400 series graphics accelerator.

Users can simply disable Hybrid™ Graphics to run in power saving mode (the ATI Radeon™ HD 3400 series features PowerPlay™ technology, which reduces power usage during low GPU activity). This feature provides support for up to four independent displays Note: Hybrid™ Graphics is only supported under the Windows Vista operating system

DirectX 10.1 Support

This release of Catalyst™ introduces WHQL certified support for the DirectX 10.1 API found in Microsoft's Windows Vista Service Pack 1 update for all ATI Radeon™ HD 3000 Series products.
Anti-Aliasing Enhancements

This release of Catalyst™ introduces anti-aliasing support for all Unreal Engine 3.0 based games (running in DirectX 9 mode). Users can enable Anti-Aliasing for titles such as Gears of War and Unreal Tournament 3 by simply enabling Anti-Aliasing within the ATI Catalyst™ Control Center.

This release of Catalyst™ allows users to enable narrow tent and wide tent Anti-Aliasing custom filters while running in the CrossFire™ Super Anti-Aliasing modes, (for DirectX9 applications) providing an improved image quality experience.
ATI Catalyst™ Control Center: HydraVision support for Windows Vista

This release of Catalyst™ introduces HydraVision support for the ATI Catalyst™ Control Center under Windows Vista. HydraVision enables users to more efficiently organize multiple applications across single or multiple displays. High-lights include:
HydraGrid - A new feature found in HydraVision that divides the Windows Vista desktop into user definable areas helping users to more easily move and organize multiple applications
Hydravision Hotkeys - The ATI Catalyst™ Control Center Hotkey Manager can be used to quickly setup and define their HydraVision specific hotkey commands
HydraVision Virtual desktops - Users can configure up to 9 virtual desktops, enabling users to manage and group multiple applications across user defined desktops. Application positions, desktop associations and display settings can be saved for every virtual desktop
HydraVision Wizard - Using the ATI Catalyst™ Control Center Wizard, users can very quickly configure their HyrdaVision settings
Digital Panel GPU image scaling

This release of Catalyst™ introduces a new setting that allows users to enable GPU accelerated scaling for Wide aspect LCD displays. The new setting Maintain aspect ratio improves the display resolution image quality when scaling is enable by maintaining the wide panel aspect ratio (stops the image from looking distorted)
Catalyst™ Control Center: Advanced Video Quality Controls

This release of Catalyst™ introduces new advanced video quality controls which include:
Edge enhancement, which adjusts the level of sharpness of video content
De-noise, which removes ghosting artifacts while preserving details of the original video Note: To turn off De-noise, you must drag the De-noise slider completely to the left (with a value of 0), followed by placing a check mark in the Enable check-box.


The new slider controls can be found in the All Settings page of the Avivo Video tab found in the Catalyst™ Control Center. Note: This feature is only available under the Windows Vista operating system.

ATI Catalyst™ driver: Tessellation support

This release of Catalyst™ introduces Tessellation support in the Catalyst™ driver for the ATI Radeon™ HD 3800 Series of products. Tessellation has the potential to simplify development efforts and improve application performance by creating high polygon models from low polygon models all within the GPU. Note: Applications must also be designed to take advantage of this feature

[dejanbinladen]

ako se smijem nadovezat upravo sam instaliro 8.3 i ispobao overclock i rezultati su predobri ne toliko po 3dčmarku nego po visini overclocka, evo trenutno radi gpu core na 900mhz sto sa 8.2 blago receno nije bilo moguce.
Kako kod drugih meni se cini da su ovi driveri najolji u zadnjih ... par mjeseci

Eto toliko zasada idem jos nabijat overclock, inace gore je zalman vf700 cu pa da se nebi neko "opeko"

[dart_tom]

evo i ja ih stavio i rade odlićno,također gpu je stabilan na 900,mema 1250

[thedream]

i kod mene također,sve radi super..to je onaj,boom-efekt valjda kod svakog stavljanja novijih drivera..al zbilja i u praksi radi dobro,200 marka više na default postavkama..trenutno sam ju clocknuo(HD3870),na 810/1161 i radi tiho i rock-stable..

neću pretjerivati sa clockanjem grafe sa stock cooler..radije kupim Freezera i grunem proc na 3.8,4.0..

[Gemmy]

probao i ja, rade cisto ok

[ShebY]

Imam jedan problem sa dotičnim, nije baš problem ali eto
To mi se događalo sa starim 7.11/7.12/8.1 ali sa 8.2 ne
Kad uđem sa desktopa u igru koja nije na istoj reoluciji napravi mi se degauss, i kada samo iz igre radim alt+tab nazad na desktop opet to vrlo je iritantno može neko pomoć?
Koristim 8.3 i ATT

[mihovil]

koliko su se propravile performanse u igrama? kako recimo ide assassins creed?

[razor i2c]

i ja sam instaliro ove nove drivere i povecao mi se overlock grafe,sto sa starim driverima nije bilo moguce

[Sand]

Ja instalirao i nakon 2 sata vratio na 8.2. Verzija 8.3 mi je u raznim stvarima činila ekran ne gledljivim. Titranje je bio glavni problem, kao da monitor ima RT 30ms. Katastrofa.

Edit: sad sam vidio - degauss isto kao i kod Shebya

[piNheaD]

Meni napokon radi fking HD3870 kako treba.Ne smrzava mi više u igrama.Izgleda da je bilo sve do drajvera.Npr. Enemy territory na Visti 64 bita.2 sata igre i sve u redu.

[Pippincro]

Izgleda da su ovi driveri radjeni samo za crossfirex i eventualno single grafu.

Recimo ja sam osobno prebacio na 8.2 drivere u roku pola sata, jer je obican crossfire sje... do kraja. U 3dmarku drop od 6000+ bodova (cak i na samom procesoru par stotina bodova), u igrama svako malo trzanje (na najvecim postavkama, cak i gore nego kad je bila samo jedna hd3870.

Vidio sam da je vecina ljudi s crossfireom obicnim imala taj problem po drugim forumima i zato mislim da je ovo promasaj od strane ati-a. Ako su vec isli slagat drivere, mogli su napomenuti onda nek ne skidaju to ljudi koji imaju obican crossfire...
Drzat cu se 8.2 josh duze vrijeme, jer mi sve savrseno radi na njima.

[Gordon Freeman]

Puno bolje..prije na 770/2100 nema šance da mi se nakon pola sata nesruši igra..sad na tim taktovima radi savršeno moja grafa...puno bolji od 8.1

[sipe]

Ja svoju nemogu natjerati iznad 864. Stavio sam bios koji ispravlja fan control i oc zid ali 870 je samo san dok 860 šiba 2 sata cod4. Jer zna netko gdje je problem? Temp ispod 60 cijelo vrijeme

... Stavio sam bios koji ispravlja fan control i oc zid ali 870 je samo san dok 860 šiba 2 sata cod4....

Daj sshot od gpu-z, da vidim koji ti je bios gore.

[Gordon Freeman]

ja mislim da je ovo max klok na mojoj grafičkoj...osim ako nepostoji neki drugi bios....imam dobro hlađenje na njoj [vf900] ali neda mi grafa više od toga.

[Enter Sandman]

Ha ha ha, koji smijeh, 8.3 isti kao i 8.2 bar kod mene uz gubitak -1 bod na marku...

Slika je stavljena jer je unutar 50kb
I neće prek 864 da ga hebeš, mogu ga ja dignuti na neznam 870 i gledati ga jedno 10 sekundi i onda se sruši driver i sve opet normalno.

[2145]

Stavio sam i ja 8.3 i sve radi normalno (možda malo poboljšanje u performansama). Dosta vas tvrdi da vam se poboljšao overclock. Meni ATItool daj artefakte na 800MHz još od 7.12 (makar radi stabilno u COD4 850/2700) s default BIOS-om i def. cooler (na 50% temp ne prelazi 66 stupnjeva).

Autor dart_tom

evo i ja ih stavio i rade odlićno,također gpu je stabilan na 900,mema 1250

Jel to ATItool stabilno ili samo u igrama i 3dMark?

[thedream]

ma postavlja se golemo pitanje vjerodostojnosti bilo kojeg testa..moj frend drži karticu na nevjerojatnih,ja vidio,ne bi inače povjerovao..ispod VF900cu, 900/2450..sad dal je voltmod,nije voltmod..pitaj Boga..ali uredno prolazi 3D mark 06..i 4 igre koje smo probali,golim okom rade savršeno..CoD4,Oblivion, NFS Carbon i Crysis...

Naravno da većina artefakata nije vidljiva golim okom,ali ja se ne bi zabrinjavao i da ATi tool detektira 1,2,3% artefakata..

govorim za 3870 taktove..a inače su 775/2250...nevjerojatno..memu dići 200mhz..gpu 125..i ništa..čak u idleu 60c ispod vf900cu...load je na 75c..tu negdje..nije preko..

[tor]

Kat d` krap. Priče o ševi prebacite na forum.hr, podforum LJES. Ovo je PCE, podforum ATI. Ne može biti jasnije nego što je.

[lajchi]

Čudno, mene zezaju ti novi driveri. Crossfire baš i ne radi sad s novom verzijom, u 3dmark 06 imam manje bodova nego s jednom karticom, a ujedno i slabiji cpu score, u igrama isto tako ne radi sa crossfire ništa...

[°kabel listrik°]

Bok!
Nisam htjeo otavarati novu temu, nego cu se ovdje prikaciti, nadam se da nece smetati jer trebam samo neki majušan savjet:
Naime imam ovu
http://www.gigabyte.com.tw/Products/...ProductID=2709
grafičku karticu i muči me temperatura, koja prelazi 70-75° kada igram...inace stoji na 40-50°...sa catalystom sam probao i spustiti taktove..ali opet isto...
Pa me znaima sto bi se to moglo desavati jer znam da ne bi trebale temp. biti tako visoke....

[dart_tom]

za taj hladnjak ti je normalno tako da se ne sekiraš ili stavi gore nekog zalmana ako te baš živcira!

Znas...iskreno nisam bas miran kada je tako "malo" veca temperatura, a i reci mi ko je kada od nas ovdje miran kada je temperatura u pitanju!!??
Pogotovo kada je u pitanju grafa ili proc!!?

Ma to ti je normalna temp, pa kaj bi ti 45°C, ak te nervira snimi rivu tunner i stavi na FAN SPEED na 50% (ak te ne smeta buka) pa ti nebude ni blizu 70°C! Meni je došla do 105°C i ostala je živa, zaboravil sam maknuti profil u rivi i eto vraga...žilave su te 3870!
