Catalyst 7.9BETA Leaked

Apparently these 7.9's have been leaked, just thought I would put it in it's own thread.


http://forum.beyond3d.com/showthread.php?t=43644


Available for Windows XP/Vista.

Getting Vista ones now, 116.8MB.

Would be good if someone can test them, I am currently unable to as my machine is currently down with no Ram.


Thanks
Willz.

Ah right, I hope some leaked drivers appear in the next couple of days, or something for Bioshock.

Apparently it's only NV brining drivers out tomoz even tho that says ATi aswell, but I do hope ATi do release something, they cant not tbh, anything to give a couple extra FPS in Bioshock will be good tbh, I think I'll be overclocking the graphics full time for this game too.
 
mmmmm i looked in the .inf files of the vista and xp drivers and it only as 3 cards listed..

"ATI Radeon HD 2400 Series AGP " = ati2mtag_RV610, PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_94C4
"ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro AGP" = ati2mtag_RV630, PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_9587
"ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT AGP" = ati2mtag_RV630, PCI\VEN_1002&DEV_9586

No they're not 7.8 are your lot till next month. There will not be any drivers from ATi AFAIK, Most likely nvidia "BioShock" optimised drivers that don't do much. :rolleyes:

Err and why should it matter if an OEM leaks a driver?

More driver choice = better for end users.

As long as the end user knows they are beta and problems can occur.
