    Because almost all of us had the 11.4 preview drivers. And these WHQL 11.4 drivers are the same in performance compared to preview 11.4.


    I might update from the preview to these though.

    What he said. 11.4 Preview basically gave us the performance you are experiencing a month ago. This is just the Windows-approved version of the same drivers. Good drivers, but most of us has already experienced it for over a month now.

    I've been on 11.4 since their preview release. I assume these have some of the kinks worked out. Either way, I haven't noticed any performance gains since 10.2 because most of the games I've run are at 60fps to begin with.

    when i had catalyst 11.3 installed and played red faction guerrilla, radeon pro would indicate directx 9 was being used. as soon as i installed catalyst 11.4, radeon pro now indicates directx 10 is being used. just something i noticed.

    I had my minimum framerare in DoW2: Retribution jump from 8 to 28, and the average rose to 58, from 45.

    so huh. apparently these drivers + dvd playback = garbled mess


    I need to do some codec reinstalling/updating/whatevering. Or just use VLC (which works fine for dvds still)

    11.4 WHQL drivers turned out to be very unstable for me. They gave me random freezes and BSODs. I reverted back to 11.3 WHQL.

    The 11.4 preview driver increased the temps on my laptop by about 15C
    This seems to have lowered it a bit.
