AMD Catalyst 11.4 WHQL Software Suite Released
AMD today released this month's timely release of its Catalyst software suite, a unified software package that installs the latest drivers for AMD Radeon graphics processors, AMD HDMI audio device, 7-series and 8-series chipsets, and related system software. This particular release has been touted by its makers within the community to provide significant performance improvements, some of which have been demonstrated by a "preview" version of Catalyst 11.4 released last month. A partial list of those games can be found here. Apart from performance enhancements, Catalyst 11.4 WHQL includes new features such as task based display management controls, an improved Eyefinity setup group, and a new Catalyst update notifier that lets your know if a newer version of AMD Catalyst is available online. There are some OpenCL GPU compute enhancements, and a list of bugs fixed, as listed in the Release Notes document.

I was getting little black dots in the background and along edges of things.
This driver is fine.
tried 11.3 way back and for some reason the videos i play with WMC is choppy as it seems it disables hardware acceleration for some reason.... WMP seems to play fine though... and also, my Windows Experience Index for the graphics went down to 5.6 from 7.2! :eek:
this time i tried 11.4 and the same thing happens, same problem... man, what is wrong? is it me or what? :shadedshu
> uninstalled old driver, rebooted, installed new one - didn't work right
> uninstalled new driver, rebooted, ran driver cleaner, rebooted, reinstalled new driver - still didn't work right
:banghead:
please enlighten me... im about to roll back to my trusted 10.8 driver... :ohwell:
Who knew FF4 would get crossfire support? :D
go into the CCC and under
What flavor hunny!
glad Im running a ssd for this shit!!!!!
Disappointed not to see any performance gains for NFS Shift II Unleashed.
Nonetheless, 11.4 are awesome drivers!
First section there should show you Morphological filtering
:)I don't know. Since when is that not possible? A screen capture, at least in theory, still captures exactly what's rendered to screen, unless another app/program gets in the way of it :confused:
Cheers for that info :)
Also is the corruption that happens with MLAA tied to cleartype or does anyone know?
Make sure you diable dektop composition on the compatibility tab on all your game shortcuts.
This will increase framerates and reduce mouse lag within games. :toast:
I have just recently gone back to using it again since the developer is back up and making new versions again.
I don't know if it will fix your stuttering media playback as I have never had the issue but it is lighter than CCC and personally functions better.
I also like how it can give you a read out of your GPU temperature in the system tray along with the max temp the GPU hit when gaming.
Strangely ATT did not work well with 11.3 for me but works fine with 11.4 even though the latest release of ATT was for 11.3.
Need to test out these new drivers but if they improve anything over the preview drivers then they should be great.
