ATI Catalyst 8.6 Performance Analysis
The ATI Catalyst 8.6 drivers were released about a week ago, and
TweakTown has just tested them out.
Let’s see what they had to say:
“While in the applications we tested there hasn’t been any notable gains with the HD 3870 X2 actually taking a hit in a few cases, the new drivers generally seem to be increasing performance in the promised sections for people.
What’s really interesting about this driver is if you take the time to read the performance improvements, they all revolve around DX10 improvements. It will be interesting to see if this is something we begin to see more of over the coming months; Vista has really picked up momentum in the gamers market with most people jumping onboard.”
Judging by all the benchmarks, these latest drivers are slightly slower than the Catalyst 8.5’s. Therefore, unless you are experiencing issues with your current drivers, there is no rush to update.
