New Catalyst

Anyone tried the Catalyst 4.7 yet?

I tried the omega 4.7 and since then, windows is very slow to start (very slow being slower than it should be).

Not sure what happened but going back to omega 4.5 didn't fix it. Maybe something went wrong during the install. Also, Battlefield: Vietnam is slower than usual: can't use vsync or turn AA/AF on without the game stuttering, even though the fps are fine.

Can't rate these drivers for sure until I reinstall Windows as it seems to be the only thing I can do to make it boot as fast as it should. Been a month and a half since an install anyway....I always reinstall every 2 months (might seem extreme).

I never like changing drivers anyway. Ati drivers are a pain to uninstall.

yeah i tried the new cats.

can't say i notice any difference, but its easier to mod the profiles of open gl etc.

seems to be stable, no lock ups yet.
