May 30, 200421 yr Being a new (and maybe temporary with the advent of the sexolicious 6800) convert to ATI card, Ive been meaning to ask some questions about updating drivers. Right now Im using the DNA 2.2.4.3a drivers, and they're pretty good. The only real problem ive had is an FPS/System Lag thing in Day of Defeat that has rendered the game unplayable. Anyway, Im looking to upgrade drivers. Should i stick with DNA or go to the official ATI drivers, and which versions should i use
June 1, 200421 yr I have had some little problems with my ati 9800xt and Catalyst drivers. After installing the card and installing the new drivers, i saw somewhat like snow (the screen looked very stange) on my monitor. After restarting the pc, all worked fine. With Catalyst 4.4 i had the same problem and the same solution (rebooting pc) I have never had such problems with nvidia cards. I dont know if the catalyst drivers are good, because i have no experience with other drivers for ati. Some say, the driver from the manufacturer is the better for the card, some say no.
June 1, 200421 yr I like the catalyst drivers. They're pretty easy to use, and I've never had any problems with them.
June 1, 200421 yr Author the DNA drivers have been pretty awesom, save the DOD (which might be steam, not driver related) glitches. Somone needs to convince me to switch to Catalyst
