Vekkinho Posted June 26, 2006 Share Posted June 26, 2006 Hello, Did anyone find out which Catalyst version is best option for FPS in LO-FC? I remember having more FPS with 'old' 5.XX Cats than with 6.XX series...Funny but I guess it's not 'newer the better' thing here. I think that best Cat is the one that was one of the latest during the release of FC. Whadda U think?! [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mustang Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 I've been running Catalyst 6.6 for the past few hours, 1.12a runs like a dream, seems this version has faster anisotropic filtering too :) in the release notes : "Far Cry performance improves 4-5%. Larger gains of up to 18.3% can be seen when using anisotropic filtering." now that has to affect the FPS in LockOn for sure, i use 8x AF and i believe its smoother.

Mustang Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 Hey, i've "only" got an X800, i reckon 6.6 will be fine for your 9800 pilotasso, my brother has a 9700pro and he's been running the 6.5's and previous drivers without issues. (BTW like the pic, looks like a kilrathi :)) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Newer drivers does not mean it's better. Pilotasso, For your aging 9800 pro card I suggest sticking with your current driver. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silent Warrior Posted June 27, 2006 Share Posted June 27, 2006 Mustang: It's bloody prince Thrakhath, matey! I think that frame's from the intro for Wing Commander 3. THERE's a game with an atmosphere. I love it too! Could do with a bit of horizontal stretch, but that's splitting hairs. To make my post even remotely on-topic... :) I haven't tested these with LOMAC, but I've taken FS2004 for a spin. I got a few more FPS, whee! When it comes to LOMAC, I'm mainly limited by my CPU anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
