The Catalyst software suite installs drivers for installed ATI/AMD Radeon graphics processors, AMD chipsets, as well as installs relevant system software. The major change of course is added official support for Radeon HD 6800 series GPUs, but also a big set of new features, namely support for Blu-ray 3D, Stereoscopic 3D powered by Dynamic Digital Depth (DDD) and iZ3D; AMD Catalyst Accelerated Parallel Processing (APP) technology; added hardware video acceleration for HD WMV, and enahnced Dynamic Contrast video controls. It doesn't stop here, a boat-load of game and GPU-specific performance increments were announced, that covers a number of Radeon HD 5000 series GPUs, which are detailed below.

Epic LULZ!

Bobington · Oct 22, 2010

Known Issues: Mouse cursor may intermittently be corrupt/missing in one of the displays under Eyefinity configuration while playing games/samples

Come on it's been over a year and this still isn't fixed and now they expect us to shell out cash for 6xxx which has the same bugs?

Ironically I got the cursor bug while making this very post.

char[] rager · Oct 22, 2010

Question on these hotfixes.

Do you install the main 10.10 and then the hotfix, or just the hotfix by itself?

de.das.dude · Oct 22, 2010

LULZ!!! long live my puny 4650. no eyefinity hassels. no crossfire.

Hot fix alone. FYI only use the hotfix IF you have a 68xx series.

Awesome. Morphographical AA before December as they initially said. I guess they got it done early. The reason they release hotfixes so early is due to them not being WHQL certified which takes time. Really, they should just call them beta's as they don't really "hot-fix" anything.

f22a4bandit · Oct 22, 2010

Cada isn't going to be happy that the cursor corruption isn't fixed with the 6800 series...

Do the 58xx series card support that?

I know. I wish I could see his face when he reads that. I wouldnt blame him if he went green. lol

I wouldn't blame him either. Going on a year for this issue, and no fix whatsoever, at least with the 6800 series. I'm sure the 6900 series will have the same issue. There's something wrong with either the way eyefinity is implemented, or it's a hardware issue. Either those or AMD is too lazy to correct it.

They'll be hosted on TPU servers very soon.

everytime i click on Win 7 x64, it goes to a white screen with only the option to click english in the browser? is the server over loaded?

VulkanBros · Oct 22, 2010

well the site is up and running again...at least for Win7 x64....just grabbed them: http://sites.amd.com/us/game/downloads/Pages/radeon_win7-64.aspx

or could be grabbed here: http://downloads.guru3d.com/ATI-Catalyst-10.10-Win-7-|-Vista-(64-bit)-download-2630.html

Swamp Monster · Oct 22, 2010

Is there Morphographical AA support for HD 4800 Series too?

boogah · Oct 22, 2010

dooooood i just installed this and run street fighter 4 benchmarks on one of my machine and it boosted the FPS.

Core i5 650 @ stock
HD 5770 1 GB @ stock 850/1200
1920 x 1080 60hz 8xAA maxed out everything

older drivers average FPS 47

new drivers average FPS 74.04

brandonwh64 · Oct 22, 2010

This is all i get

boogah · Oct 22, 2010

just go to ATI.com then select your particular card and windows 7 etc.. and it will take you to the correct page.

I think it is a hardware issue and that's the problem. AMD has made things harder for themselves by adding batch issues too the mix.

The anandtech review made it sound like Morphographical AA will work on any game regardless of support for aa. Wondering if that would mean it would work on one of those old first gen DX 9 titles like Halo.

acperience7 · Oct 22, 2010

I've been nosing around AMD's site(having the same issue as others with white screen). What is this "Accelerated Parallel Processing" technology? From the ads on AMD's site it seems to be a 68xx feature.

I think that's what street fighter the boost after i installed the driver. There's an option inside the settings that says Parallel Processing and have option on and off... it works on my 5770 so it's not exclusive to 6 series.

aj28 · Oct 22, 2010

Question: I have seen several sites posting official AMD terminology that reads something along the lines of "Morphological AA is a new feature available in the HD 6000 series cards." This would imply, to me, that they intend to roll it out across the entire HD 6000 series. Being that the 6770 is likely (confirmed?) to be a 5770 refresh, what do you suppose are the chances that users of these cards could hack their way into this feature? I mean, this isn't something that requires hardware support... Or is it?
