Veröffentlicht am: 13.09.2002 12:17:08

Nvidia hat ja mit dem Detonator 40 nicht wenig Staub aufgewirbelt, was sich aber sehr schnell als Marketing Gag herausgestellt hat.

In der Tat liefert der Detonator 40 eine schlechtere Bildqualität als seine Vorgänger wie Sie hier nachlesen können.

ATI hat nun aber trotzdem eine neue Version des CATALYST Treibers nachgeschoben, der ebenfalls Performancesteigerungen bringen soll. ATI weist sogar besonders darauf hin:

Performance Improvements:

As with most CATALYST releases performance has increased in various situations. Here are some examples observed in CATALYST 02.3:
  • NHL 2002 scores are up 10-20% for RADEON 7000/7500/8500/9000 products
  • Serious Sam performance is improved once again (8-12%) across all RADEON’s
  • NASCAR 2002 performance is up 8% on the RADEON 9700 PRO
  • Vertex Shader performance has been improved by approximately 20% for the RADEON 9000 PRO, resulting in a 3-5% gain in 3DMARK score.

Fehlerbereinigung:

    Issues Resolved in CATALYST™ Version 02.3
  • Subsystem ID showed incorrect information under details tab
  • Hanging issues with Spider Solitaire under Windows XP
