Catalyst 5.5
3D Mark 2001: 17683
3D Mark 2003: 5102
3D Mark 2005: 2204


Super su novi, bas mi se svidjaju, ali mi nije jasno kako je 2001SE sporiji nego na 5.4?

 

[rushko]

ma zar je vazno, daj samo neka sve radi bez problema, a narocito ovo:

Star Wars Knights of the old republic: Loading the Dantooine level of the game under Windows XP no longer results in slow game performance

pozdrav

 

[Vule]

Naravno da nije vazno, 3D Markove radim samo iz zabave, a igre samo nek rade, koji god da je skor...

Nego samo me je interesovalo, napredak je ocigledan, 100 poena vise u 2003 i 50 poena vise u 2005 nije uopste malo s'obzirom da je "samo" drajver promenjen, sve ostalo je isto...

 

[SuperStarr]

Jesi li "izvrteo" 3D Mark više puta? Onda "zapišeš" najbolji... :d

 

[Vule]

Ma sad malopre sam napravio "najbolji", stvarno je odlicna ova X600XT grafika, nisam tako dobre performanse ocekivao od nje...

A drajver je fenomenalan, odigrao sam par igara, sve jako lepo izgleda i brzo radi, kvalitet slike je odlican...

 

[borab]

Izvrteo sam svaki od bencha vise puta i rezultai su sledeci:
Aquamark3 ,novi su bolji za 20 poena
3D Mark 2001se > losiji za 190
3D Mark 2003 > losiji za 15 poena
3D Mark 2005> losiji za 120 poena.

Na kraju sam vratio one koje sam koristio ( 5.1 ).

 

[sikili]

I kod mene su se za sada najbolje pokazali 5.1 drajveri, kartica je 9800 pro 🙂

 

[rushko]

@Vule: stvarno odlichni rezultati za x600xt, izgleda kao ok reshenje za pci-e, izmedju 9600xt i 9800pro

ja sam odavno zaboravio na kojekakve 3dmarks-e, stvarno mislim da je najbitnije kako se drajveri pokazhu u igrama ili applikacijama koje koristis.

 

[borab]

U, covece. Pa ti imas filigranski osecaj za frame u igrama. Alal ti... 😉

[DS9]

I dal` da stavljam ove nove catalyst il` da ostavljam postojece Omega 2.6.05a

 

[rushko]

vidi sta je ispravljeno u novim cats pa na osnovu toga zakljuci. pozdrav

 

[Ripper]

Meni su novi Catalysti doneli 1 problem... Dakle u video >>> theater mode više ne mogu da izaberem ništa osim "Match the source video" i 4:3... Znači ne mogu da izaberem "Scale to full screen" a ni 16:9... Ove opcije nisu sive nego jednostavno ne mogu da ih selektujem, istog momenta se sve misteriozno vrati na gore navedeno...
Saphire 9600pro... Sa ranijim verzijama sve normalno radilo... Do čega li je ovo?

 

[Cwelle]

Da li je za ovaj novi drajver potrebno da imam Service Pack 2 za WinXP ili je dovoljan SP1? Iz nekog razloga nisam mogao da instaliram 5.4 pa me interesuje ovo. Inace, imam 9800 Pro.

 

[Vule]

Ja sam ga instalirao na SP2, ne znam kako je sa SP1, ali moguce je da ne moze na doticni, negde sam cuo da svi noviji zahtevaju SP2, ali nemojte me drzati za rec...

Edit: sad videh... 5.4 sam bez problema vozio na SP1...

 

[eternity]

offtopic: Sestri sam skinuo 5.5 Catalyste. Povezala je Tv sa kompom, pa me zanima kako da ukljuci subtitles kada pusti DivX? Vidi se slika ali nema titla. Nikada nisam to namestao na ATi-ju, pa nemam pojma.

 

[Ripper]

Pa najlakše da stavi u Control Centru, pa u Video Theatre SAME TO ALL! (i tako će biti identična slika na monitoru i na tv-u...

 

[eternity]

To sam i uradio ali nece.

 

[audiofreak]

Napokon su ispravili usporenje u KoTOR 1 na Dantuinu. Trebalo im je "samo" 21 mesec da to isprave (od verzije 3.8 do 5.5), brooka.

 

[rushko]

to "usporenje" vazhi i za Dantooine i na KOTOR 2, znachi nema ga, ne deshava se vishe, izgleda da je problem isti s obzirom da je i engine.

@eternity: ako koristish BSplayer, chekiraj sledeche: options/preferences/subtitles/draw subtitles to overlay

 

[nidza]

i kod mene dobitak... u odnosu na 5.4 sam dobio 200 poena na Asus 9550GE, u 3dmark 05. Malo li je? Bilo je oko 1500, sad je oko 1700... I dalje imam grozan skor u 3dmark 01se, to nisam uspeo da rešim, dok igre rade besprekorno. 🙂

 

[Cwelle]

Instalirao uspesno. Drajver radi sa SP1.

 

[Ralex2]

Imam cudan problem. Sa svim drajverima posle Catalyst 5.2 u 3DMark2005 i u Far Cry teksture izgledaju kao sareni pravougaonici, kvadratici. Zagrevanje sigurno nije posto nema pojave probijanja tekstura u obliku trouglova. Sa Catalyst 5.2 je sve uredu. U cemu je fora? Da li ipak nesto znaci ono sto pise na Ati-jevom sajtu "ATI recommends Windows XP Service Pack 2 or higher to be installed"?

 

[eraser]

To se i meni desava,primetio sam u 3D marku 05.... Mislio sam da je do overclockovanog Radeona 9600 pro,pa sam spustio frekvencije na default,ali se jos uvek vide ti pravougaonici.... Mozda je to novi bug vezan samo za 9600 seriju, nek se javi jos neko sa istom grafickom i drajverima...

P.S. Imam instaliran Service Pack 2....

 

[Ralex2]

Froka, slusaj sta je jedan sa www.exxtreme3d.co.yu rekao za nas problem: "he, ima tu svacega,.. ovo sto si opisao deluje kao da je GPU neispravan, (probaj da declockujes i GPU i Video RAM, pa probaj tako) ili probaj sledece: U bios-u obavezno proveri dali ti je ukljucen AGP 8x, i namesti ram for Video AGP sto veci mozes. (512, ako daje mogucnost) Probaj ponovo testove.
Ako ni ovo ne "rodi plodom", probaj onda staviti skoro minimum memorije za AGP (64mb) i probaj ponovo.
Ako je i dalje stvar ista, mozes probati karticu i na drugom racunaru, ali pre svega mislim da je do nje problem. Stvar je sa 5.2+ catalyst driverima sto koriste drugaciji "pristup" memoriji nego sto su to raniji driveri radili, pa su se na odredjenim konfiguracijam pojavili slicni problemi."

 

[audiofreak]

Ma taj ATI bas ne zna da napise dobre drajvere 🙁

 

[byMaX]

pa bitno je sto su izasli, ovaj Radeon sa 512 MB memorije sto je bio na testu sa 5.4 nece da radi, a sa 5.5 hoce 😀
