Hi all, anyone who has vista should install these new drivers , ive noticed a real difference in performance..Not only that , i can overclock to the same speeds in xp with no problems what so ever... i just move the slider bar up in ATI overdrive to 621/756 with no black screen , artifacts, blinking or anything else..... Hope they work as good for you guys...By the way my card is still stock:)

Hmm, I'm not a fan of the CCC overdrive for various reasons, and I've heard it relaxes memory timings which can hinder performance some.

I didn't notice any real huge performance improvements or anything, but since I have them installed i'm gonna keep em and wait for 6.7's. But glad they worked so well for ya!

ATi really need to address that screen flicker with the CCC when it starts up, its bloody irritating. They should redo the CCC while their at it, its clunky and bugged to hell. On the up side its nice to see the OGL driver working so well, I actually saw it outperform their D3D driver a few days ago in testing.

When i need your opinion i will be sure to ask for it.....

Its been said again and again in every forum by every moderator and administrator that people shouldnt do Double Posts about the same thing yet for the 7.6 catalysts we have 3 threads....
So what if we get another 3 for the 7.7 , 3 for th 7.8 and so on ? Thats why the Search button exists..Search it and if you dont find it post about it.

That is true, but we all know that some newer users or (not to be completely offensive) more ignorant users will pass up the search option for the easier "If I post it, they will reply" option. We see it not just in the creation of different threads, but the same exact questions posted many times in the same thread (depending on popularity, good example, x1950 Bios Thread). In the end, recommending using search and still throwing in a helpful comment are the way to go.

Bickering is not the way to go, but it's amazing how much people get offended by typed words. But cheers, I know there's a good portion of TPU users out there to do some good whether there are those that argue, disagree, want to start an argument or whatnot, and those people keep this place worth coming back to. So :toast: , get over it, get along and help people, that's what TPU is about!

7.6's haven't done anything for my performance, same OC's, same performance readings (or very close results), still the same "I'm catching my XP performance in Vista", and OGL performance is how it should've been when my x1950pro was launched. I don't expect ATI to do much more for my card, but look forward to the next release!

Kursah i help whenever i can , but i cant help it to get somewhat agitated when i see one 7.6 post a week ago, 1 7.6 post 5 days ago and 1 7.6 post 3 days ago....Its useless to have 3 threads for the same exact thing.
And i have made the same argument about the Quake Wars Beta threads that should just be merged with the primary Quake Wars Beta thread. Im stating this cause some ATi fanboys want to create impressions that im arguing specifically in this thread which is about ATI.

I don't blame you which is why I agreed with you, but what's the point of getting agigitated? Just post some help for the guy asking the question, even if it's a link to the other thread? I mean, the thread is already made, and unless a MOD deletes it, it's here for everyone to read and decide to post in or not. That's where your judgement comes in, to either help or hinder the situation. That is your choice, and I know you're a very helpful individual. So don't take offense to what I wrote, but do yourself a favor and save a wasted post if it's not going to help the clueless.

Sure I agree that the original post could've been saved if that person had actually used the search feature and/or not been ignorant, but that doesn't change the fact that assistance was called upon. And in the end TPU should be about helping those who need help. You didn't do any wrong in my eyes, but is it really worth an argument? I say no. I have made mistakes on this thread and in real life, and I hope to be better because of them, or critisized becuase of them until I do better myself.

Hellas, you're a very good individual, and I see your point, but at the same time, the fight you want to will will never be won because this very thread shows how the system works, and it's just better to provide help/references/links to assist the one in need and then be done with it. I know you are one of those that make TPU a great place to visit. And both ATI and NVida fanboys, as-well-as AMD and Intel fanboys create confrontations and improper judements, but it's you choice to post what you do in response to what you read. It's on ongoing battle that cannot be won becuase we're fighting our own kind, which is human, mistakes and irrogance are human, it happens. All we can do is help where we can and feel that we did what we could do, that's where I try to find my success and positivity.

If you decide to throw yourself in an arguement...well, that's your choice and you should defend your beliefs. There is nothing wrong with fighting for what you believe in, but it is wrong in choosing when and where...

But :toast: to you Hellas, I have full respect for you, and TPU, I have no worries or cares of how many threads for any Nvidia or ATI/AMD video graphics adapter driver, if I can help I will. If I have a supporting response I will post it. That's my belief, and I believe that's what you also do. Everyones different and everyone's human.

:)

Anyways about the topic, it may be silly but i used the 7.6 with a radeon 9800XT and the fps in games like black hawk down fell instead of going up. I know its an old card and an old game but many have old cards still :)

Yeah that's true! I found that for my x850, 6.9's seemed to be the peak for my performance. Some say 6.12's, but 6.9's work best on my P4/x850 setup. And my 9600, well I think it was 6.12's or something along those lines, it's been so long I don't remember!
