in terms of performance i agree i dont see much difference with my 9800pro
but i do like the extra capabilities while still having rock solid reliaibility
 
I thought that the temporal AA is just for the x800 chips. So will someone please tell me if it is just for x800 or for all radeon's, or what ever else. Thank you
 
From the Driver release notes:

This section provides information on new features found in this release of the CATALYST™ Display Drivers. This release introduces a new feature called Temporal Anti-Aliasing. OpenGL and Direct 3D applications will benefit from this feature when custom settings for Anti-Aliasing are used, and Temporal Anti-Aliasing is enabled. The feature provides higher Anti-Aliasing quality when an application frame rate is 60 frames per second or higher. This feature will be located within the ATI 3D tab and will be supported under both Windows XP and Windows 2000.

Since they don't list specifics, I would guess that it's all cards supported by the 4.7s...
 
Temporal AA works with 95,96,97,98, and X800's. Basically any ATi chip that supports DX9 seems to work.

I've had it working well on a AIW 9700pro for a while now, you may notice a slight flicker at 60hz when there are two textures that are in sharp contrast to one another (like the white against black of the FSAA viewer) Most of the time though, its smooth.

Performance AA does not seem to flicker as much as the quality AA grid. I think the performance AA has the pixels closer together, so it smooths out better. 4xAA doubled to 8xTAA also seems to have less flicker than 2xAA doubled to 4xTAA. Can't discern any difference between 6xAA and 12xTAA, but I bet someone else can.
 
is it just me, or does the 2d look better. ie desktop, window scrolling...for some reason stuff just looks better all around for me...oh well, i like these drivers.

yeay thief3 is still broken. ati should just include some kind of handy catalyst switcher since i need like 3 different versions to play 3 different games properly
 
^^^what version cats *do* work ok in thief?

I've got my copy sitting on the shelf, as I decided to put off playing it until I can run it on one of the latest video cards. It would kind of suck to finally run it and have something screwy.
