ATO 10.4 Driver?

[jinx5000]

Will they be releasing a full updated version? all i see is the preview driver and it says its not supported by AMD. does this mean it will never be supported, or there still working on completing it? thanks? if there still working it and going to make it supported, do we have an estimate time frame?

Taken directly from that link you just posted
Note! This driver is provided as is and is not supported by AMD. It has not completed full AMD testing, and is only

Thanks,

i'm wondering if the preview driver will become a permanent driver though? are they still working some bugs out and complete it and make it an active driver rather than a preview one?

 

[Maziar]

Well i think by that they mean its not the full 10.4 driver

that's what i thought, am trying to figure out if it will become a full driver in the future though. do they ever leave some drivers incomplete? or will this eventually be completed and fully supported?

Thanks

10.4 will be completed before the end of April. They do a new driver every month and normally the beta (preview) comes out a few days before official release.

That's right,they always make a driver(or drivers) before the final release like Beta's,RC1.... and after that its the final driver

I am running 2 HD5770s in CF. I don't play BC2. My question is has anyone done some benchmarks and is there any significant performance increase, like we had with 10.3?

I was just curious if AMD found some more no cost magic for us?

I haven't tried it but it doesn't talk about performance increase,its about faster load times

and only for the 5xxx series, the 4xxx it still is slowed (i hoped for the best by installing it)
