AMD Releases Catalyst 10.12a Hotfix Update, Adds Radeon HD 6900 Series Support

bogie · Dec 17, 2010

What we are missing here is that these new drivers need to be tested on the HD 6970 and HD 6950 to see new performance benchmarks.

I am guessing that they might improve the HD 69xx series performance from an underwhelming release.

Can anyone with a H69xx series please post some benchies and compare against the various website benchmarks out there please?

i think so, yes.

great thanks, so if AMD will make HD 5XXX will have driver like this too ? so HD 5XXX owner won't have to use any DP ?

it adds a new Eyefinity mode that lets you use all five display outputs on the HD 6000 series graphics cards (i.e. two DVI, two mini-DP, one HDMI) for a 5 x 1 Eyefinity configuration

If I'm getting this right, the 6900s do not require a DP adapter to setup 3x1 eyefinity! Sweet :cool:

! No more cursor corruption at last! :toast:

what he ran, was 16x AA + MLAA (whether he realised it or not, i dunno)

MLAA is just a tickbox on/off option, no more settings than that.

I am a time traveller..... I jumped into my capsule this morning and set it to 25th December 2010 (I wanted to see what Santa had brought me), I was pleased because I got the laptop I asked for, I couldn't wait to start it up, on the welcome screen I could see the "AMD Mobility" flash...... then it said "Catalyst 11.8" :roll:

Taken it off, although it has never given me any problems, unless the Malware you talked about is actually a pop up advertisement!

Not your fault its webowner of that sites fault.

Bobington · Dec 17, 2010

Quite, but it was not a Pr0n site, it was a "boys" (non pr0n) magazine..... just like maxim or FHM in the UK.

Can't wait for the new 11.0 CCC official 2011 drivers to help power up my HD 6970 beast of a massive big card

i am expecting a 300% performance increase for all cards.

as well as MLAA giving performance boosts when in use.

trickson · Dec 29, 2010

One thing is for sure I hope 11.0 comes out soon . I like the 10.10e drivers better . 10.12 drivers are full of bugs and stop responding intermittently on my shit ! It would be nice if they could really put some hard Over clocking into there interface as well . with the limit of 960 /1440 it is kind of a joke .

brandonwh64 · Dec 29, 2010

I get texture flashes in BC2 with 10.12 so when i get a chance i will downgrade to 10.10E

Ill try it but i want MLAA and i tried to the reg changes in the other thread but it still doesn't show in CCC

Wrigleyvillain · Dec 29, 2010

^ Yeah me neither on my 5850 though they showed up right after 10.12 reinstall yesterday for my two new 6850s. You can try Radeon Pro in the meantime...

Super XP · Dec 29, 2010

I've not had an issue as of yet with my HD 6970 and the 10.12 beta driver. Fingers Crossed

Looking forward to 11.0 :rockout:
