wow, looks like a nice performance boost. i'm wondering why ati doesn't promote the 9.9 as such? there's no hint at better performance in the changelog.
what's your OS? vista or 7?
VISTA 64 bit ULTIMATE......:up:Quote:

I'm running Cat 9.9 right now as well. I don't have any pre-9.9 benchmarks to compare to but it seems like it fixed the BSOD I was getting in L4D which is good.
I can't wait to get a 5870 and use these drivers. Hopefully I can then max out ArmA2. AMD is executing well these days.
exactly what i was thinking... arma2 everything on maximum...cant wait...
Arma 2 just plays so bad, so clunky, makes the game not enjoyable, ive tried it even with gtx 295 quad sli, doesnt scale well at all.
off topic.... lol i was abotu to comment n ask who it was in your avatar then i read your sig :ROTF:Quote:
