8.660 RC7 (Catalyst 9.10 Beta)

rflair

These were released by MSI.

They have an MSI logo, which is a minor bother.

They work with most HD series cards.

ATI Catalyst 9.10 Beta Windows 7 | Vista (32|64)

ATI Catalyst 9.10 Beta Windows XP (32|64)

I hope these drivers are fine. We all know problems with 9.9.

Nj rflair!

Interesting, though 9.9 has worked fine here and with the 5850 and 5870 cards nearly released I guess we'll see a early 9.10 driver release in October unless ATI releases a sort of beta versions similar to these MSI drivers, I'll wait until then but it would be nice to hear the results from those who choose to try this driver.

(Might even be that these are what's on the disc of the 5870 support CD to get it functional, unless 9.9 already has support for the new cards.)

Thanks again Rflair

These fixed the RE5 bug. Where DX10 HDR=HIGH 4x 8x aa and motion blur when used together corrupted the picture.

if they won't fix it in final it will be ridiculous!

Could someone please test NFS:Shift on these? I am a bit hesitant to try these out, I wrecked my system in the past with driver updates.

it works on 9.7 fine but i also want to play RE5 and NFS shift..., also you can play the game, but the floor is black xD

i hope they release rc6 to check if it works @@

but maybe the benchmark works fine and the game doesnt...

They are definitely better for Shift than 9.9. No more annoying low fps in crowd with 4xAA and 16xAF.

WhiteLightning · 09-23-2009, 17:01 | posts: 20,445 | Location: Netherlands

Im having the same problems as 9.9. slow system in overal, its like lagg sometimes. games freeze for a few secs then continues.

Cobrass2 · **Memory**: A-data 1600MhZ CL8-8-8-24

My counter strike source crashed, First time ever in the past year after upading a driver.

And my pc frozed on Shift after 30 sec i entered the menu. i did not test any other games yet -.-

No real difference for Shift, still the same crappy performance. 15 fps on start with 15 opponents in front of me.

To improve Shift performance, disable Catalyst A.I and set Mipmap Detail Level to performance.. I have HD 3850 OC(512 MB) nd shift runs like butter with these settings.

panev · 09-23-2009, 21:14 | posts: 18 | Location: Bulgaria

Nothing happened. Same ****ty fps with 15 opponents ~ 15fps, without cars(opponents) ~ 60fps+.
