AMD Catalyst 11.1a Hot-Fix Drivers Coming Today! - Legit Reviews

 

Catalyst 11.1a Hot-Fix

 

The latest Catalyst Hot-Fix; (11.1a) offers increased performance brings a slew of new features and should be the driver used for any performance testing. Below are a few of the highlights from this driver:

 

Performance improvements for the AMD Radeon HD 6800 & HD 6900 series include but not limited to:

 

AMD Radeon HD 6900 and AMD Radeon HD 6800 Series:

· 3DMark Vantage improves ~7%

· 3DMark06 improves ~3%

· Call of Duty Black Ops improves ~20% at 4xMSAA and up to 35% at 8xMSAA

· Riddick Assault on Dark Athena SSAO performance improves ~20%

· Unigine Heaven OpenGL performance improves ~10% at moderate, 30% at normal and 100% at extreme tessellation levels

 

AMD Radeon HD 6800 Series:

· Aliens vs. Predators improves ~9% at 2xMSAA and up to 20% at 4xMSAA

· Batman Arkham Asylum improves ~4%

· Crysis Warhead improves ~2-4%

· Metro 2033 improves ~28% at 4xMSAA

 

AMD Radeon HD 6900 Series:

· Battleforge DirectX 11 performance improves as much as 6%

· The Catalyst Control Center includes an early prototype of some new tessellation controls. Our goal is to give users full control over the tessellation levels used in applications. The default selection “AMD Optimized” setting allows AMD, on a per application basis, to set the best level of tessellation. The intention is to help users get the maximum visual benefit of Tessellation, while minimizing the impact on performance. Currently no applications have been profiled, so the “AMD Optimized” setting will be non-operational until further notice.

· The “Use Application Settings” option gives applications full control over the Tessellation level. Users can also manually set the maximum tessellation level used by applications with the slider control

· The long term goal for the “AMD Optimized” setting is to use the Catalyst Application Profile mechanism to control the AMD recommended level of tessellation on a per application basis. AMD’s intention is to set the tessellation level such that we will not be reducing image quality in any way that would negatively impact the gaming experience.

Ragazzi si potrebbe aggiornare il primo post con la procedura per flashare la 6950 in 6970 (e magari qualche altra info e foto dei vari produttori)?

 

EDIT:

 

La 6950 Twin FrozrII è in vendita in qualche shop?

PS: I dissipatori aftermarket compatibili per 6970, lo sono anche per la 6950?

allora ho messo su dagli rc3 gli 11.1 whql, sto facendo un pò di prove. C'è qualche miglioramento in qualche game/bench ma nulla di eclatante, ed in altri i risultati sono identici agli rc3 del mese di dicembre.

 

STONEGIANT: 1920x1080 da 29 a 31

MAFIA2: 1920X1080 AF16X da 93,8 a 94,2

DIRT2: 1920X180 AA8x da 70,2 a 72,1

 

negli altri game/bench non ci sono altre variazioni con questi driver, nemmeno con F1 2010

installata nuovamente la vga, HD6970, provo gli 11.1a.

 

Bene, ho fatto un pò di test di confronto con gli rc3 e gli 11.1 whql.

 

In media senza toccare alcun parametro nei driver vanno alla stessa maniera degli rc3, ma poco sotto gli 11.1 whql. Tranne in lost planet (+0.5 fps), F1 2010 (+1fps), metro 2033 (+2fps).

 

Quindi non capisco davvero le release note a che si riferiscono...

Sto aspettando l'arrivo di una SAPPHIRE 6950 Dual Bios 2GB che voglio far diventare 6970.

 

 

Qual è la procedura più aggiornata e più sicura da seguire?

(ho visto che diversi link in prima pagina non sono più funzionanti)

 

 

Quali driver mi conviene usare su Win7 Home x64?

Quelli ufficiali o quelli moddati? (se esistono)

 

 

Con la vecchia 4870 usavo Ati Tray Tools per abbassare le frequenze in idle (e consumare meno) e alzarle per giocare (e quindi avere maggiori prestazioni), con la 6950/6970 come funziona questa cosa?

 

 

Altri consigli o suggerimenti?

 

 

GRAZIE! ;)
