ATI Catalyst 10.1 Driver Suite Released

Blu-ray working well ...tested with CyberLink PowerDVD
 
It looks like developers @ ATI did not work too much since december last year.

Although display driver did update to 8.690, CCC did not update against 9.12 hotfix CCC,
even after clean install 10.1 CCC is older than 9.12 hotfix CCC both in version and dates - what a shame :laugh:
 
Im down about 200 points as well on mark06 and Vantage.

For me it seems every 2nd driver hits a performance increase with this gpu... I think 9.12 is the one for me till the 10.2 cat comes out :pimp:

they seem to have two drivers teams. These would stability/crossfire profile drivers (minimal changes) while the next drivers should be the feature/performance ones. Every second driver is always minimal.

200 points is insignificant. I can get +/- 200 points just running one bench after the other. How are other things working out for you?

The Vista related fixes seem minute.

Ah seem ok atm Erocker. Im going to suck it up and wait till tomorrow to see what happens after a night of gaming

Ok just ran it again and showed only -8 points with everything the same but the cpu has been dropped to 1.20 volts from 1.25 so all in all I guess it's working lol!

Im not running my 2nd gpu as I lent it out and Buddie, I went over to his house to grab it today to test the new cat but he said some one stole it.... mus ta sold it for crack or some shit like that, FUCKER!

I need new friends or just kick the shit outta the current one!

did you download the 10.1 ccc package or just the 10.1 driver?

your CCC version is clearly 9.12

What does DXDIAG say about your driver version?

I have CCC 9.12 as I only downloaded the driver

That is some serious shit man! His excuse is as dumb as hell. WTF, did he forgot to tell this to you earlier?!


As for the new Cat's - I don't see why I should upgrade from 9.12's. And I haven't had any issues on Windows with x64 drivers as well.


EDIT:

Hah, I'm on the screenie :toast: :D

Yeah, you're running 10.1 now. Driver packaging version shows 8.69-xxxxx
ATI screwed the pooch on reporting the version number. It doesn't look like they are in any hurry to fix it either, so expect a lot of confused posts about this in the near future... :(

Thanks man :toast:
I checked Gpu-z and all it shows under the driver is this....

As you already discovered, dxdiag will correctly report the Catalyst version.
CatalystMaker notes in his tweet log that the new 10.1 drivers don't display the version accurately elsewhere.
The pity is that angry users will probably come here to blame GPU-Z for not working properly.
 
No problems here using 9.12's and CrossFire. Not joking, no lie.

He said ANY problems with ATI drivers, that's ANY and all versions he tried, that's BS and I will repeat that until I'm banned from freaking internet.

But go ahead, support the sponsored messages and fall over a real person if that's how you like things.

ATI release notes:
Known issues under all windows operating systems:
Intermittent gray screen or vertical line corruption my randomly appear on the screen.

Don't beat yourself up over it. We are just all anonymous people leaving virtual words on a virtual forum. Don't let something fake get you mad for real. Besides, I can't get a hold of internet creator Al Gore to wipe you from the internet so it looks like you're staying a while. :P
 
Having the same issues too....

f**k knows what this is - ive reinstalled twice & both times I used driver cleaner before i reinstalled..... I havent tried DL the one off the AMD website because their both the same size.....

ATi said MAY, that's MAY occur on all versions of Windows.


That's not a huge stretch. This is my first ATI card on my system, been green all this time till my last upgrade. And I guess I haven't had ANY issues and all versions I've tried. But go ahead, call me a liar. Virtual folks can get all worked up over nothing.
 
Catalyst version can say just about anything ....but as long as it says Driver Package version: 8.69-091211a-094296C-ATI then you ARE running 10.1 and NO WORRIES!


I am confused to why they would have overlooked this but hey they did.

THIS is HOW it should look ..noting that Catalyst version can say just about anything
