ATI Catalyst Drivers: 8.11 vs 8.12 Performance Mini-Review
Test System Specs
Both drivers were tested on the exact same system with the exact same settings so as to eliminate external factors that could have influenced the benchmarks in one way or another.
The table shows the test system specifications.
Keep in mind that our E7200 processor is overclocked to 3.8GHz which helps to eliminate the CPU bottleneck. Also the card both single and in CrossFire ran at their stock settings of 750MHz core clock and 3600MHz memory clock.
Now on to the benchmarks.
Looks good !
Could you also add 8.12 Hotfix tests to that ?
Nice work.
I’d better get to running my Catalyst 8.12 benchmarks. I was going to do them this weekend but I started playing Far Cry 2.
Thank you.
Nice idea Karan, however, the Catalyst 8.12 hotfix was released to address a black screen issue with the 4850 cards in CrossFire.
It was not a performance related release.
