Ich wart noch auf die neuen Laufwerke für meinen neuen Rechner. Vorher kann ich noch nicht installieren. Und auf meinen beiden anderen Rechnern sind nur Karten der grünen Fraktion drin.... und wird schon gesaugt. Dann darf die Graka wieder im Vantage zeigen, was sie kann. Angeblich soll der Catalyst 8.8 ja der reinste Wundertreiber sein. "xxcenturioxx" hat alleine mit der 8.8 Beta schon über 9000 Punkte aus seiner HD4870 holen können. Mal sehen, was meine jetzt hergibt ...
MfG, boss3D
Nein, kann ich nicht, da er sich bei mir unter Vista64 mangels Zertifikat nicht installieren lässt...
Könnten Besitzer einer 4xx0-Karte mal testen ob Powerplay 2.0 jetzt endlich vernünftig funktioniert oder ob das Feature am Ende nur ein weiterer Marketing-Witz seitens AMD war?
Welche Version hast du probiert? Die Suite oder die Einzelversion?
