Dumb question, but do these work with AGP? :rolleyes:

I can't imagine that they do, but it'd be nice...

I am pretty sure they do. When you go to ATI's website and do the wizard for your type of card it doesnt ask if its AGP or PCI-E.

Dont know if this is mentioned here already, but seems that the leaked betas are newer than these "official" 8.7 drivers.

The version numbers go like this:

8.6 = 8.501
8.7 "leaked" = 8.520
8.7 = 8.512

And it seems we have to wait for the PowerPlay fix for at least a month longer, since it's not on this release yet...

nop, im not joking and i don't have a physx card

look at this



that program wouldn't even work at all with 8.6 for me, and I can run all the phyx demos in the sdk using the gpu now, with 8.6 every single one of them crashed or ran terribly slow, some of them still run in software though

it was running at like 289fps

@KainXS
I'm sure ATI won't be secretly coding physx into their drivers and even if they did it would take many months, and that program runs fine because it's just a normal 3d display program and in fact to use PhysX you don't need any gpu/physx-card since its drivers simply default to software mode when HW isn't found, so if that didn't work for you it was something that was wrong with your system and not the ATI drivers getting magically HW PhysX support in 2 weeks.
Try one of the physx demos and you'll find it says 'software mode' I'm sure.

Still, I like your optimism :)

Im running 8.7b (8.520) and everything works fine for me. In 3D Vantage i got P8595 over P5600 that i got on 8.4 that were most stable before 8.7b.
So I think ill stick with betas for now.

Same History again ATI launches a new PEG card and a Driver who dont suport it and whe test , test again , test test test it and whe only see the power of it when CCC goes to 9.0 or superior drivers come, its the same FuK shit all times, the same fuck drivers who dont make u work fine why they dont renew u people of driver project????. They can´t make a driver stable for a New released Card and whe can fuk own PC because this Asshole issues like the RPM of Fan in HD4850 a big blue screen.

I wana buy a HD4870 XOC when it came to sell but with all of this erros i will wait more

What are you all about? These drivers work great. And I don't know of anyone getting a blue-screen because of the HD4850's fan RPM. Temps are within spec, the card operates fine at those temps, user's just complain because we are used to lower temps.

sorry for my english im a Brazilian who need more english classes

For a first driver its not work too great only think a few minutes when HD2900XT comes to market and the drivers are not mature many people dont like the PEGcard but now this card makes HD3870 eating dust, its the same thing now, no mature drivers for a Powerfull card only in CCC 9.0 or superior u will see the PEGcard at maximum performance many people here have much money or make a small vault to buy new released PEGcard and count in the fingers the day to test it and whe only see the same thing 1k points in 3d mark or 4 ~ 9 fps better but not the maximum performance of it

People pay too much for this if anyone dont buy cards in the release the price of it goes down too fast and whe really pay the value of it imagine the taxes that i pay to take a product like this in release u pay $300 for me its like $650~$700 too expensive

LOL tks a lot Erocker, but im really disapointed sorry for the past words but its the true, i will only see this thing better when i saw results of it, Try to understand me i pay a lot for a PEGCARD i test it i make all the things possible to use it at the maximum and i dont have any kind of gain i only spent energy time and much patience of this = disapointment

If i spent this time playing games i will more happy but this things dont work 100%
