Can someone who has installed post the driver build version?

It's 8.66.6 which are older than the OpenCL beta's which are 8.67.

http://download2-developer.amd.com/amd/Stream20Beta/ati-opencl-beta-driver-v2.0-beta4-vista-win7.zip Are the latest drivers. That link should work.

Thanks Broken Hope I was wondering where they were - btw the drivers I posted aren't exactly the RC6 drivers as they appear to running more smoothly - but anyway - they seem to have a few problems with croossfire so not advisable anyway

gareth170 · 13 Oct 2009 at 23:16

looks like there will be a ATI Radeon HD 5900 Series, which is in them drivers

Broken Hope · 13 Oct 2009 at 23:20

The ones I linked are 9.11 beta's.

magicroundabout · 13 Oct 2009 at 23:22

9.11?

where are the official 9.10's

and how you finding them? any better?

ViRuS2k · 13 Oct 2009 at 23:25

Do not install the 13/10/09 drivers from amd/atis site as they have a crippleing bug from a previous RC7 driver that is still not fixed well been fixed and come back ect.

if you run 2x 5870s or 5850s do not install them
when you do and go to ati overdrive you will notice one of your GPUS is running at 0core/0memory, and will also case GPUz to crash your system when run.

magicroundabout · 13 Oct 2009 at 23:26

so use Broken Hopes link?

just installing them here

magicroundabout · 13 Oct 2009 at 23:42

just installed the drivers but had an icon pop up called BDA Remote.

What is this?

ViRuS2k · 13 Oct 2009 at 23:42

Catylist 9.11 beta work perfectly no crossfire X issues also the catylist control center no longer flickers when viewing the overdrive tab

magicroundabout · 13 Oct 2009 at 23:45

I'd do a custom install, otherwise you get a ton of stuff you probably don't want. Think the BDA remote is part of a TV tuner driver included.

911 betas seem to have fixed resident evil 5

8xaa16af

the benchmark is fully fixed, now to test the mines level.

gareth170 · 14 Oct 2009 at 01:36

resident evil 5 looks very poor with the 9.11 drivers. also i can't get AA working on it,

using retail version.
