I was wondering if anyone has tried them yet. I just installed them last night and in 3dmark they show some promise, but I have not had to "sim" test them yet. MadDAWG

The best visual quality IMHO is still that of the 23.10. Which, on my system, are also still the fastest.

Did a nosedive on my system with 3dmark2001 I've kept with the ELSA set which use the 21.81 and of all the current 4 series drivers these are still the best on my system with the highest 3DMark2001 score.

Sorry to hear that Maddawg. It's AMD here. Achim "MadDAWG" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

I installed them, but not for long, my 3dMark score dropped a bit, but worse, I saw some major jerkiness in the framerates - smooth for most of a second, then flat-out stop, repeating every second or two...27.10 has been flawless for me.

I tired 27.2 and it was just slightly slower (talking a 1/2 a frame a sec) in 3dmark2001 than 23.11. Right now, what is the consensus #1 driver version?

Whatever works best on your box, that's what, heh. Seriously, it's a lot of trial-and-error. Some unlucky souls have had insane crash problems since the first 23.xx drivers. I haven't. Some people get best performance from 21.85, some from 22.30, some from 23.11, and myself from 27.10. Milhouse "Phillip Malphrus, Jr." <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...
