Gotta love the fresh feeling of another new hundredth point.

Ready to freshen your AMD/ATI driver set? The new Catalyst 10.11 have just been released.

The 10.11 set contains the following:  

·  AMD display driver version 8.791

·  HydraVision for Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7

·  Southbridge/IXP Driver

·  AMD Catalyst Control Center version 8.791

Like other driver releases, are there small performance improvements. The boosts are less notable than in other major releases, faster is always better.

·  Battleforge: Performance increases up to 3% on ATI Radeon™ HD 5800 Series single and CrossFire configurations with anti-aliasing disabled. 

·  STALKER – Call of Pripyat benchmark: Performance increases up to 5% on ATI Radeon™ HD 5800 Series single and CrossFire configurations

Check out the full release notes here and grab the download here.

    Thanks for another bad drivers ATI... My Mobility HD2600 usually sits at 38ºc in idle, when I put 10.7 > 10.11... My GPU at idle stays at 57ºc... So, thanks for trying to kill my notebook... :X

    Well there is a good reason why you should stay at the 10.7 then. Especially considering that the HD2K series has not gotten any real performance updates since well the 9 series of drivers.

    Much like the newer drivers don't seem to have any real performance upgrades for the HD4K series anymore.

    ..

    also have the mobility hd2600 and my idle temp is still 37°C after installing 10.11. but i noticed a HUGE improvment in flash apps. maybe because of the openCL driver? i thought only 5000 and above are capable...

    I wonder if it fixes the problem the other versions cause (for me) in Windows Media Player?
