I currently have the newest catalyst drivers and catalyst control center installed. I don't do much gaming at all anymore as my computer is obviously outdated now but mainly because I just don't have the time for it.

Anyways, I'm looking for ways to speed up my computer in the desktop environment; surfing the web, instant messaging, programming, etc. I'm just wondering how much the newer catalyst drivers bloat my computer w/ processes and memory usage etc compared to older drivers.

I have some real old catalyst drivers, from 4.3-4.7 I think. I know there was one version that I saw some increases in gaming performance back in the day but I don't have the time to benchmark them all out.

Any suggestions?
 
Yeah, I realize that but I have no money! College has really got me by the balls. I'm not expecting some incredible performance increases, I'm just looking for different ways I might be able to speed this old computer up.
 
I fi remember correctly the 4.12's are the sweet spot for that card, they should be available. and as stated above stat away from the CCC.
