    Catalyst 9.12 coming tomorrow Dec 16

    Hopefully this is the set to finally fix the Witcher issues. They kept saying it was fixed, it was fixed...and it never was. Hopefully this time IT IS.

    They have NOT been released yet. And now the blog discussing it has bombed out.. Sad

    processor bottleneck? 5850/70

    I'm sorry this was not clear, and it is my fault. The e8400 was overclocked to 3.2 on air (like I said..I am no expert and like modest gains with no extra cost of danger of loss)... And the comparisons should have read that even at stock clock, the i5 already showed potential and was...

    processor bottleneck? 5850/70

    I do not pretend to be a super geek or have the overall qualifications for it....but, I do know this.. There is a limit on the CPU vs GPU and that debate has been proven to me big time. I originally had an E8400 OC'd to 3.2 with an ATI 4890. In my game of choice (Age of Conan), I could get...

    Should you upgrade to a 5870? Mini review inside

    What mattered to me is the game I play the most...Age of Conan. And for the price, the smoothness of the game, the new visual quality (I was able to go Edge Detect 24X AA and SuperSample and get the same framerates as my 4890 at 4x AA)...I think it is the right choice if you also have the right...

    5870 (vs GTX 280) Results: Confusing

    I guess no one takes into account Nvidia and their driver optimizations? If any of the Nvidia control panel optimizations are in play, you will DEFINITELY see differences...even in advantage of the Nvidia card easily. When I did a test run of Age of Conan on a GTX 260 versus a 4890 for...

    Getting a little "hitching" in WoW on my new 5870

    Better yet. Go play Age of Conan. Great framerates on the 5870, and no stuttering (and more realistic graphics...)

    ATI 5870 and Age of Conan

    Well, tried to install ATI tools and it causes the system to lock on a Blue Screen (and no, not a BSOD, but a light blue screen...) I have to hard reset to get the system to go down. I have the latest version installed...but it is in Windows 7 (and yes, I followed the criteria to get it...

    ATI 5870 and Age of Conan

    ATI 5870 and Age of Conan

    This is just some preliminary work I did, but all indications are that this card will shine in this game. Link here The engine has been difficult to begin with in DX10, and is still noted as being in "Test", but is a full implementation of DX10. Of note are several features that were odd to...
