mio modesto parere potevano anche fare a meno di rilasciarli, hotfix compreso. Era molto meglio la beta che circolava, con la versione finale semplicemente hanno fatto una maialata, bbcf2 và in crash, sono aumentati i tempi di caricamento e riscontro un 30% di fps in meno. Io ritorno ai precedenti

l'unica cosa positiva è il nuovo app profile, per il resto è meglio stendere un velo pietoso.

santi del cielo asistetemi.....
cosa bizzarra mi è accadutta quest'oggi
prologo:
installo need for speed shift che come sapete contiene i driver phsyx.
siccome noto dei lag convengo sia meglio provare a installare personalmente(previa disistallazione di quelli precedenti)i suddetti driver nella versione aggiornata.
cosi faccio e nessuna richiesta di riavvio.
tutto bene gioco funziona egragiamente senza neanche troppi rallentamenti.
alche finito la sessione di games,apro il ccc per controllare la temp della gpu e noto
che le frequenze sono bloccate a 400-900.
uff la solita solfa cosi riavvio.
ora arriva il problema
al riavvio noto subito che aero è disabilitato(ossignur che sfere semper una)
e ciliegina dopo un po un simpatico messaggino mi avverte che non è istallato nessun driver per la scheda ati(muamuamuamuamaummmmmuuuuaaaa....per non pianger)

niente panico penso controllo le cartelle e sono presenti tutte(amd ati tecnoligies etc etc)
cosi apro la cartella amd in c a avvio il setup da li e parte tutta l'installazione dei driver vari(a proposito questa cartella si puo eliminare???)
alla fine raivvio e tutto normale.
adesso brughi non infierire subito sulla mia stoltezza e dimmi solo se il problema è stato causato
dall'installazione della physx,perchè altre cose non le feci!!!!!!
merci mon ami

...............................
con l'ostia tutto a posto,
ho avviato il gioco dopo il sinistro e........
artefatti mostruosi.........
e cosi mentre mi cucinavo un succulento puret di patate
ho dovuto espletare la tanto simpatica procedura di pulizia e reistallazione....
spero di non dover reistallare anche il games.......
ma porc.....e putt

[Roy]

Installati (previa pulizia totale dei vecchi 10.8).

Risultati con America's Army 3 (unico gioco installato che usa l'Unreal Engine 3) comparati con i driver forniti da Windows (7 32 bit):

- Grafica con artefatti (inguardabile) contro grafica ok dei driver di Windows 7
- 30 fps max in gioco contro i 60 dei driver di Windows 7
- frequenti crash del gioco contro la completa stabilità dei driver di Windows 7

avanti così ATI! n°1 nel fare i drivers (di m....)!

O.S.: Windows 7 Ultimate 32 bit
Scheda Video: Sapphire Radeon HD 5770 1GB

a me funzionano benissimo.....su schede 4xxx e 5xxx
