4.10 im Kurz-Test mit SP1



Einleitung:






Gestern Abend hat Ati den neuen Treiber Catalyst 4.10 auf den Markt gebracht.

Mit einer Downloadgröße von 42,2 MB kein Leichtgewicht. Dafür ist aber alles dabei, was man benötigt.

Ati rät für diesen Treiber das Service Pack 2 von Windows zu installieren.

Da viele User das Service Pack2 wegen Inkompatibilitäten noch scheuen, haben wir den Catalyst 4.10 mit dem Service Pack 1 getestet.

Alleine schon deswegen können Leistungseinbußen die Folge sein.
