AMD Introduces Catalyst 10.12 and 10.12 Preview Featuring Redesigned Control Center

[buggalugs]

I did the normal ccc after the preview; preview did not impress me.
I am old and set in my ways.

When you set the new GUI to advanced, the layout is virtually the same as the old one.

Any news on the flickering or cursor corruption issues?

 

[Jamborhgini313]

Downloading now! 10.11 is so horrible my new 5970 just...disappointing.


Update:
Okay these drivers suck

 

[bogie]

So its a shiny new interface, so what!

What matters, is performance improvement on games.. of which I can't see any?

 

[truehighroller1]

No game performance improvements for the 5870s?? This sucks, I was hoping for something BIG!!!!!!! lol

 

[legends84]

SUCKS for sure.. it reduce my benchmarks score

 

[Mussels]

downloading the one with the new CCC from the AMD site now.

 

[wolf]

well no MLAA for my mobility 5650, as soon as i get my budget rig up and running, I'll be game for clean install's and so on.

 

[runnin17]

These drivers suck. If you use overdrive then it fooks up your memory clock. What the hell is AMD thinking. I have been an ATI guy for five years and I am getting to the point that I will no longer buy from AMD if they can't get their shit together!!!!

 

[Over_Lord]

LOL!! XviD, DivX, Mpeg4 is the same $hit with different implementation!
So (theoretically) any Mpeg4 encoded movie, can be decoded hardware despite the CC attribute(divx, xvid, etc)

you got that right

 

[chevy350]

working fine for me, picked up 3 points in 3dmark11.....doesn't seem like much but after overclocking a bit more after my first score it dropped almost 100 points so to get those back plus 3 more with just a driver change is great to me

10.12 preview at least (not tested 10.12 regular) breaks fallout new vegas.

trees are totally fecked up (this is slightly zoomed in btw, so everything looks worse than it should - look at the leaves, half of them arent there)

 

[Mussels]

it should be noted that the optional downloads (10.12 AHCI and RAID drivers) give you the option to install the new CCC as well.


annoyingly, they arent even showing an option to install the AHCI/RAID drivers either >.<

 

[streetfighter 2]

I'm pissed. All I'm reading is about the massive failure in these new drivers. I was really counting on them to be halfway decent so I could upgrade from 10.8. (I only upgrade if the drivers get praise from the community.)

It seems the only viable upgrade for me now is 10.10e. Damnit... :shadedshu

Oh and ***k the new interface, and the old interface. AMD/ATI couldn't make an interface even if it only needed one button. (Sorry but I had to say it. It took me 15 minutes to figure out how to change the overscan settings the first time...)

starcraft 2 and nba2k11 problems

from catalyst 10.10 to 10.10e hotfix to this one... no improvements, the mouse pointer garbage has gone but replaced with crash when exiting the game. the nba2k11 still has no solution to artifacts displaying during the game. disappointed.


core i5 760
win7 64-bit
catalyst 10.12
xfx radeon hd6850 1gb

 

[RejZoR]

MLAA is enabled by default for 5000 series, where did you read this?

It was a question, not a statement... So i guess i'll be staying with Catalyst 10.10e hotfix.
This is for the first time in several years straight that i haven't updated 2 new versions of Catalyst. I always kept it up to date the very minute it was released. Now i'm lagging behind for 2 versions just because of the lack of MLAA support for HD5800 series out of the box.

 

[geek33]

i came from nvidia upgrading from gtx260 to hd6850 and all i can say is.... disappointed with the drivers totally messing up. i regret buying this total piece of crap. i would gladly sell this in the coming weeks and go back to nvidia and buy gtx460

 

[Steevo]

I don't have any issues, I did a over the top install of my slightly cracked version of 10.11 it fixed the stuttering in WMC when scaling a partial DVD window to 1080P.

 

[Mussels]

i'll post a few comments here, just as an FYI


10.10e - pylon rangefinders dont render for protoss in SCII
10.11 - pylons are fine, but mouse cursor corruption is random (SCII again)
10.12 (new and old CCC) trees and grass are borked in fallout: new vegas

these are all on a 5870

 

[T3RM1N4L D0GM4]

Installed 10.12 with new ccc, let's have some fun!
no crash right now...

 

[pantherx12]

Got no issues, running preview driver wityh new UI too, even get a performance boost in open CL apps. ( 1million gpu particles runs at 60fps constant gpu caps viewer)

Ye, i'm having this issue with 10.10e. I play terran, when I select units, it doesn't show them outlined (selected) and also, the pylon range circle is messed up.

 

[pr0n Inspector]

DIVX Accelerated support WHAT ABOUT XVID ITS MORE IN USE THAN DIVX
this lame only 6800 series the other cards are left out

Go ask ffmpeg or xvid to write a GPU-accelerated xvid decoder then. Why should divx give a frak about xvid?

 

[MbMobster]

Hope the cursor curroption in WOW and SCII will finally be gone... come on AMD, do it us blizz fans ;P

 

[Volkszorn88]

AMD, you're breaking my balls here.
