This release of Catalyst introduces the following new features:
- New Product Software Driver Support
This release of Catalyst will provide software support for the following new ATI products:
- ATI Radeon X1650 Pro
- ATI Radeon 1950 XTX
- ATI Radeon X1300 XT
- HDR + Anti-Aliasing support for The Elder Scrolls Oblivion
Users no longer need to download and install the Chuck patch - the Direct3D driver now includes native support for High Dynamic Range and Anti-Aliasing with The Elder Scrolls Oblivion.
- Performance Improvement
As with most Catalyst releases, performance has increased in various situations. In this release of Catalyst Intel 965 Crossfire performance increases due to improvements of the Crossfire D3D driver in handling large vertex meshes. Gains of 6.7-15.8% can be seen in 3DMark2006, 9.7-10.5% in 3DMark2005 and 3DMark2003 performance improves as much as 7.1%.
