ATI Catalyst 7.2 - Treiber für Grafikkarten von ATI

Nachdem vor einigen Tagen eine Betaversion des neuen Catalyst 7.2 aufgetaucht war, folgte nun die fertige Version. Sie steht für alle bekannten Windows-Systeme zum Download bereit, darunter auch Vista, wo es die meisten Fehler zu beheben gilt. So wurden beispielsweise die langen Startzeiten des Catalyst Control Centers verkürzt. Außerdem wurde zahlreiche kleine Bugs im Zusammenhang mit dem neuen Betriebssystem aus Redmond behoben. Insgesamt soll sich die Performance doch deutlich verbessern, da weniger Ressourcen benötigt werden. Weiterhin wird jetzt standardmäßig auch die 64Bit-Version unterstützt.

Wie immer wurde auch die Performance in einigen Spielen verbessert, darunter Doom 3, Battlefield 2, Desperados 2 und Splinter Cell Double Agent.

Für Linux-Basierte x86 Systeme liegen ebenfalls neue Treiber vor. Hier wurden diverse Bugs gefixt und die Performance wurde verbessert.

Nachfolgend die komplette Liste der Änderungen in dieser Version:
