Not trying to spoil your fun, I for one can't wait to install these drivers. Should be a jump in performance from my current CAT 4.4

Has CCC got the options tab back in so I can so I set reduce DVI frequency for High Res displays???

At the moment I'm forced to use the old CP becuase of this missing option.

Damn you Ayoub!

Interesting error when trying to install.

Cat 4.12 Beta's are out now too.

[mmp121]

I went from CAT 4.4 to 4.11, and my 3DMark05 scores went from 1863 -> 2097. I'm impressed

The softmod drivers aren't ready yet

[Wombat]

I'm not a fan of the drivers. I was sticking with 4.4 or something. It feels like there's a pause after every resolution change. And Halo has a problem with some layered textures.
