ATI mette on line la nuova versione 6.8 dei suoi driver grafici per schede Radeon. Questi driver non riguardano le schede Radeon 7000, 7200, 7500, 8500, 9000, 9200 e 9250, che non sono più supportate da ATI. Questa nuova versione migliora le performance della serie Radeon 1000 e nei giochi OpenGL grazie a dei miglioramenti nel compilatore degli shaders. Queste le novità apportate: • aumento delle performances del 6,5% in Doom 3 • aumento delle performances del 18% in Quake 4 • aumento delle performances tra il 5 ed il 10% in Chronicles of Riddick • aumento delle performances fino al 16% in Prey In più ATI annuncia di aver apportato delle ottimizzazioni a livello della memoria, ottimizzazioni che entrano in gioco quando l'applicazione sfrutta i 256 MB di memoria video. Gli aumenti di prestazioni sarebbero inoltre del 22% in 3DMark 06 con le schede Radeon X1000, del 30% in Call Of Duty 2 con il Radeon X550 e ancora maggiore con le schede Radeon X1000. ATI risolve inoltre dei bug in giochi come Prince Of Persia e Splinter Cell.Non dimenticate d'installare .NET Framework 2.0 per poter utilizzare questi driver.
