Very nice! Now I just need to get my main box working again :banghead:

Thanks, noticed this early this morning on ATi's site and downloaded it.

I is sad, as this is first Cat download I dun need in long time :(

Second adapter will now run at default minimum clock values, instead of custom
GPU clock values, without requiring the user to launch and exit the 3D game in full
screen mode

I thought this was fixed in 9.5? My rig showed min values on second core after boot with 9.5.
Or is this for multi-card solutions (vs single card, multi-GPU)?

Crysis – performance gains of up to 13% for ATI CrossFireX configurations.
It's mean + 1FPS :D

Nice, CCC actually starts for me now instead of displaying its splash and then nothing else happening :)

:rockout: 1 FPS good good good :roll:

This driver is very good, thanks Ati :toast:

Does anyone know if this cripples the 4850s like 9.5 did?

TheMailMan78Does anyone know if this cripples the 4850s like 9.5 did?

from test results shown on other websites...the 9.6 betas that was out...better than the 9.5s...so my assumption is that these are the same...i still feel the 9.4 were probably the best though as the same results compared 9.4-9.6 and the 9.4 was shown to be a lil better in most cases.

I would like to see some new benches from the final release.

Thank you and works perfectly with Joint Operations

Well, not so bad.

Win 7

Does it work with Windows 7 or do we need to download that other set of drivers?

yeah

Thait is a subjective figure. For 13% to be oh 1 FPS, your frame rate would have to be like 7 FPS. If your system is running at 7 FPS, then you need to adjust something else.

Now for the people running their stuff at say 50 FPS,this will give them +6.5 FPS. Not great, but better.

This time i was curios to see if something changed
Crysis warhead on gamer and 1280x0124 gives me 46 fps average , from catalyst 8.11 to catalyst 9.6 this didn't changed too much , it gives me eighter 45 or 46 but it's nothing major.
In team fortress 2 the framerate changed
catalyst 9.5 and the best so far for source engine
15196 frames 118.939 seconds 127.76 fps ( 7.83 ms/f) 11.665 fps variability
this is on a custom demo made by me
and catalyst 9.6
15196 frames 135.555 seconds 112.10 fps ( 8.92 ms/f) 23.596 fps variability
the game is very cpu limited on my computer (e2180@3250), overclocking the card gives no framerate gain but it's intresting to see that catalyst 9.6 consumes a bit more cpu power than 9.5.
I kept 9.6 because the difference is neglijable.

30 more driver releases and we gonna get playable FPS. :D

so whats this Hydravision? Ive heard of it but don't know what it does

Delta6326so whats this Hydravision? Ive heard of it but don't know what it does

it's been around for a long time . . . pretty much, it's software that allows you to add visual effects to the desktop/windowed applications . . . like, making folders transparent, (IIRC) multiple desktops, and some other stuff I really don't remember . . .



Nice to see some more performance gains for Crysis . . . especially with xfire . . . but, y'know, if there was good ATI support from the developer, we wouldn't need to rely on driver releases :p

someone take a screenshot of this build, so we can tell if its the same version as the leaked one.

so whats this Hydravision? Ive heard of it but don't know what it does

last time i used it was 2 years ago but it was a media side bar

hydravision is multimonitor software.

lets you do stuff like extend the start menu across multiple screens.

Very nice...Thanks for the info...

I got 4670 can someone confrim this 25% Company of heroes? i mean its like 25% perf every driver release.

the performance numbers are never explained. usually they give best-case numbers - so that 10FPS to 13FPS is now a 30% gain.


Ofc you play at 60FPS, and you'll get 63FPS... woooo.
