I was trying to show greasemonkey that the link to the 8.8 was working for me.I could have clicked it and opened in a new tab,but i wanted to show the tpu page in the background.Maybe i should have elaborated a bit more.

After someones comment about trying to prove myself an idiot,which i thought was directed at me,i deleted the post.

I am in the process of doing a comparison between the 8.7 and 8.8 drivers with my 4850 (board isn't posting with both of them so single card for now) and my 3870x2, might be a while for full results, but I will keep this post updated as I finish them. For simplicity, I will be running all benchmarks with the cards overclocked.

EDIT: I am going to post screen shots of benches after I run them.

8.7 Vantage 4850


8.7 06 4850


8.7 Fur 4850


8.8 Vantage 4850


8.8 06 4850


8.8 Fur 4850 I had to swap out my 4850's, I think the other one is going bad, so I will reistall the 8.7 drivers with this card and compare to see if the significan loss here is driver or hardware related.
