ATI Catalyst 10.3 Preview Edition
I read a review on ATI Catalyst driver ( @ http://www.legitreviews.com/article/1253/1
) and they mention that there is a new 10.3 Preview Edition available. According to the review, certain applications (mainly games) really speeds up using that new driver. The driver is supposed to be available from http://sites.amd.com/us/underground/...3-preview.aspx But there is one thing that I do not understand. From the review: "The difference between the two is that Catalyst™ 10.3a Preview will contain future Eyefinty 6 updates and an Alien vs. Predator optimization which the Catalyst™ 10.3 WHQL posting does not have." What I do not understand is this --- how come the "preview version" has optimizations but the WHQL version, which is supposed to be the "official version", do not have those optimizations? Why?? |

Because those optimizations were too new to submit for WHQL testing and will be in the next version of WHQL drivers after this release. That's what I read at HardOCP anyway. |
