yessssssssssssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

Ooh, off to give the Windows 7 ones a try!

 

Thx, will start testing now.

 

sweet.......................

 

Woohoo!

I buy a Sapphire HD4870 this week, and not only do I get one with a new non reference cooler, but 1 day later I get the 9.3 drivers for windows 7, nice!

 

slow download

and so efficiency will be such alone

 

The download was quite speedy (800Kilobyte per second), installing now.

Reviews on the interweb of the 9.3 pre-release drivers were very good (as good as or better than Vista performance), so should be good

 

Haven't tried in Vista yet, but the 3d clock bug is still there on the 2nd core of my 4870X2 in Win7

 

4870X2 in Windows 7 still has the 2D clock speed issue on the 2nd gpu.

 

Mine stuck around 300kb/s, but even then it only took a few minutes to download....installing as I type this.

 

Yes, but they do nothing with performance improvements.
Only one Lost Planet: Colonies gains up to 20% on 4800 series products, and up to 50% on 4600, 4500 and 4300 series products

 

Windows 7

Just installed these in Windows 7 (64-bit) and all went fine. No need to reboot either. Now to test some games.

 

no optimilize gta 4 !!! :biggun: :bang::bang::bang:

 

just tested crysis:warhead and nba2k9 on Win7 7057 X32, 2k9 is working smooth as usual, but crysis runs surprisingly smoother and more stable! much better than vista! the game run really well. tested HF:EP2, smooth as usual, bit more responsive. THX ATI!

 

yep, here in vista 64 too

 

No need to update from the 9.2s' according to these, as they are the same.

installed on windows 7 will test games later

 

I'm surprised that people in 2009 STILL expect a simple driver revision to boost 95% of the games by at least 20%. That happened in the 90'ies but those days are over. They can't optimize the hardware with drivers, only make the OS-Hardware connection slightly smoother which most often doesn't affect performance unless there's a particular issue/bug. Setting expectations to suddenly have GTA4 hit 60FPS with a simple driver update is just unrealistic and will disappoint you every single time. Oh well... :nerd:

 

No AVIVO for X64 , do not expect anything important with this new piece of crappy software guys . I am now even more convinced with going to the n team with my next card ...
