Catalyst A.I.

Ive searched and not seen anything, Unless its hidden deep inside a thread.

There is Standard And Advanced.

I've read they improve performance.

But by doing so, do they descrease visual quality or is it the same or better quality??

Google for a sweet program called "ATI Tray Tools". I use it and I don't even need to use the Classic Control Panel anymore :happy: You can access the A.I. settings through it as well (as well as Temporal Antialiasing).

My 9800 Pro loathes these drivers. After installing them I went through 3 VPU recovers on the desktop, my monitor would turn off I hit APPLY under the SMARTGART settings, and Far Cry is corrupting beyond belief! (Both 1.0 and 1.3). All of these issues (except the Far Cry one) resolved themselves within 3 reboots.

Looks like I'll be going back to the 5.2's

And yes...Chode (once NVIDIA fan #13524327B) has converted to ATI. Lack of decent drivers from NVIDIA have turned me off them for awhile.

One rollback to 5.2's, and corruption gone.

For 9800 Pro users, I recommend steering clear of these.

I downloaded the Catalyst driver from your link. I use Norton Internet Security 2005 and it scanned the downloaded driver and said it had adware included. The file Adware.BarginBuddy was detected by the Norton Antivirus 2005. I went to the site and received the same adware notice when I downloaded the file directly from ATI. :angry: I can't believe they would include adware in a driver update. There was no way to contact their support to ask if this was indeed true. Their support function really is lousy when it comes to product support. :no:
