In order to provide you with the ability to test the world’s fastest processor with world’s best dual graphics solution, ATI is making two special drivers available for press only. The first driver enables two ATI graphics cards to be installed and run in CrossFire mode on the Intel® 975X Express chipset with an Intel® Core™ 2 Duo processor or Intel® Core™ 2 Extreme Processor. All performance improvements found in this production candidate driver will be made available to the public the first week of June in Catalyst release version 6.6. We ask that you please test with the publicly available Catalyst 6.6 driver or the press version to ensure the best quality benchmarking experience possible, and deliver results that reflect what the public can expect.

The second driver unlocks the best image quality possible in a game today, delivering simultaneous HDR and AA in Oblivion like the now famous “Chuck” patch. While the driver is not officially supported, we’re making it available to press to demonstrate the astounding gaming possible on Intel® Core™ Duo processors using CrossFire graphics.

I am goign to try 6.6, and I will try 6.3 because I just recently moved over to ATi and have no clue which ones are the best lol.
 
I vote for 6.3 witrh control panel (can be d/l under firegl 6.3)
 
Then again...reading that, looks like ATi is making a press only version for benchmarking and a seperate high quality version for actually playing games.

Sounds like BS to me.
 
I agree 6.3 is the only stable driver out of the bunch. They seem to get worse each release.
 
6.6 supposed to bring X1900 GT masterless Crossfire. Wonder if that will work for fellows that bought X1800 XT 256mb cards.

How come they always work fine for me? Maybe your system is unstable?
 
If you think 6.5 works fine...play quake 4 with 16x12 and 4x aa, then install 6.3 and do the same.

You will see why we like 6.3 so much better.
