Nové drivery v současnosti spíše odstaňují bugy těch minulých, zvětšení výkonu je jen "zbožné přání" userů...

[no-X]

1. Testují WinXP, ATi teď optimlaizuje pro Vistu (v 7.4 hlavně opengl drivery)
2. Nárůst ve WinXP ještě bude - viz zmíněný ogl driver, který byl zatím implementován pouze do vista driverů

Dobrá zpráva -> uvidíme časem.

[jasomjano]

no mne to nejde so 7.4kami taktovat. taktnem to a za par min hrania mi to vypne obraz co s tym je???

[oneill_sx1]

Tyhle ovladače mi poskodily cely system. Jednak jsem nemel zrovna aktualni zalohu, ale spise resim zmizelou partition (D, asi 200GB)

[no-X]

Ovladače asi těžko Kdyby to dělaly ovladače, nebudeš jediný z desítek tisíc uživatelů, komu se to stalo.

[Jan Machalík]

Nazdar kluci, mam takovej mensi problem.Pri rozliseni 1280x960 nemuzu nastavit jakoukoliv jinou obnovovaci frekvenci nez 60Hz.Mam podezreni na ovladace.V XP to slo, stacilo, kdyz jsem v CCC nastavil max rozliseni 1280x960/75Hz, pak to fungovalo ok.Ted mam Visty, kdyz to nastavim stejne tak mi to hodi okamzite do 800x600.

Nevite co s tim ?Predem dekuju...

[oneill_sx1]

Ovladače asi těžko Kdyby to dělaly ovladače, nebudeš jediný z desítek tisíc uživatelů, komu se to stalo.

dobre, udelalo to, po nainstalovani techto ovladacu, a naslednem restartu system nenajel. partition zmizela kvuli obnove systemu (beztak neuspesne), uz jsem stejne nainstaloval WXP znovu. ty bluescreeny s predchozimi 7.3 jsem taky asi zpusobil ja?

[no-X]

Podle toho, co popisuješ, máš spíš nějakou vadnou komponentu.

[oneill_sx1]

nemyslim, snad ne. Catalyst 7.1 funguji ok (narozdil od novejsich)

[mejla]

no mne to nejde so 7.4kami taktovat. taktnem to a za par min hrania mi to vypne obraz co s tym je???

No mě to dělá taky. Ale dělalo mi to i na starým systemu s 7.3 Konkrétně se jedná o dvě hry: Titan Quest a Call of Juarez. Víc sem zatím nezjistil, není tolik času na hraní. Ale těžko říct, jestli je to ovladačema. Jinak já sem nenatkoval grafiku, takže nevím,jestli to má na to taky vliv.

[Sentenced]

Při použití 7.4 nejsem schopnej v Company of Heroes zařídit Vsync on, proste i při volbě "always on" to nemá zadnej vliv, aneb jeden bug opravíme - 3 další přidáme.
