AMD Catalyst™ 10.10c Hotfix

^Andy^ · 27 Oct 2010 at 20:06

10.10a added support for 6800 series cards along with morphological filtering for cards in that series
10.10b was to enable 6800 support for xp
10.10c apparently had performance tweaks for 6800 series on vista and win7 (I say apparently because it benchmarks the same as 10.10a as far as my testing shows although to be fair they did name specific games which I dont have so couldnt test with).

That's my understanding of the recent hotfix releases anyway!

Can I go from 10.9 to 10.10c, or do I have to go via 10.10, 10.10a, 10.10b?

This link is working if anybody still wants the drivers but at a guess I would say they were removed for a reason..

You can go straight to 10.10c - its a complete install and not a patch.

Unable to keep my low clocks which previously were 275 / 250. Anyway, will try NV and see if anything changes for the better.

Just had a few mins play and it certainly seems to run the game much better.

Just modded my 10.10c drivers to use to MLAA.

updateed to 10.10c.

easy mod is by editing the reg

Guy's I think I would hold off on the 10.10c's because it does look like they were pulled. They are no longer available from any of the legitimate ATI sources and I can only imagine that's not a mistake and was done for a reason.

I had two main problems with them (now back on 10.10).

1) 3D and video previews in CCC non functional and present error messages.
2) Cause steam client to crash on startup.

i have had nearly no problems with these, bfbc2 seems to perform well, MOH, well, flicker is still present but not as bad as was

Seems the link is live again.

EDIT: Oops sorry meant to reply in the 10.10 WHQL disscussion.

easyrider · 28 Oct 2010 at 23:24

I gotta say I'm impressed with AMD at the moment

Yup, wonder what that was all about! :confused:

o OpenGL performance enhancements – gains can be seen in Prey, Quake Wars: Enemy Territories, and Heaven v2

The heaven benchmark is OpenGL? Never knew that.

I think I'll wait for 10.11, 10.10b seem to be OK.

magicroundabout · 29 Oct 2010 at 18:17

removing these. my idle temps are now sitting at 50ºc

arc@css · 29 Oct 2010 at 18:19

^^I will do the same once I finish NV. I am getting 50 - 55+ idle but when using 10.4 I could idle in the very low 40's.

magicroundabout · 29 Oct 2010 at 18:25

10.10b i was getting 33ºc

have done a restart and its dropped to 38ºc

something daft already!! · 29 Oct 2010 at 18:31

Yeah mean "risen"?

magicroundabout · 29 Oct 2010 at 18:46

yes and no. it was 50ºc but has dropped to 38ºc but has risen to 38ºc from the 10.10b 33ºc
