Have anyone of you GURUS heard something about when they are going to be released, and what we can expect from them?

I am currently running the 8.67 version( 9.11 betas), modded with the Enzyme stuff made by KillerSneak. Good drivers, though I can't decide if they are better than the official catalyst 9.10.

Well the 9.10īs were just released, so dont expect anything soon. Our hopes lie in beta drivers that hopefully work better than the 9.10īs which were catastrophic on my system. Really bad in performance and stability, same as 9.9. The 9.10betaīs and 9.11 betas work much better on my two systems?? Weird, but true.

Don't expect them soon. They usually arrive around the 23rd.

How can TEXTURES have tearing? Sounds like a z-fighting issue. Maybe it's a problem with the game itself..?

I've never played the game, so I'm not sure, but it does sound like an issue where textures aren't sure where they should be appearing, and they fight for control with other textures because they are in almost the same location. It's called z-fighting, or depth cue fighting.

If it's only happened in the recent version of the drivers, then it's possible some of your CCC settings have changed since installing the new ones, or it could just be something they changed in the drivers themselves. Have you tried resetting the control panel settings to defaults, or using different settings?

For sum reason i find that sticking to the same brands tends to help......but there all the same cards, i still follow this rule

Running 2X Diamond 5870 no issues......3rd one is going to be on its way.

I've seen what he is talking about in Aion. The ground textures in Pandemonium city move side to side a few mm rapidly like they are being electrocuted. Happens every couple of seconds and only maybe 20m out from your character. The immediate textures are normal.

The game is an issue by itself. I don't know how the hell they could release it in such a poor state.
I'm betting on a release next week. Maybe we'll finally get some AMD OpenCL accelerated aplication.

Yeah, things seem to flicker on my single card system as well. I notice strange bugs here and there.

Hmmmm mine seem to be these:

My 9.11 installed beta driver 8.67-091008a-090120E-ATI


That 9.11 beta driver 8.67-091008a-090241E-ATI

So that means I have an older beta version then? If this is true where can I get those from?

Bah 9.10 gives me horrible blurry textures with AA.
Anyone could provide a link to some newer, even beta, drivers?
