Driverheaven just posted a preview of Catalyst control centre which also contains an exclusive ATI interview.
"Performance, features, stability and quality, Catalyst 3.8 has them all.
And more importantly it has them all in abundance...
...thats what we said back in October 2003 when ATI released their updated driver to the world. That driver included revolutionary features like Overdrive and VPU Recover. 3.8 could really be classed as the first real result of the Catalyst program which took ATI's drivers from mediocre to world class. Since 3.8 not much has changed on the surface of the driver or control panel, a few tweaks here, some performace increases and bugfixes there however noting out of the ordinary. Today that all changes as ATI release Catalyst 4.9 and Catalyst Control Centre."

Also included in the article is an exclusive Catalyst Control Centre
interview with ATI's Software Product Manager, Andrew Dodd. Here's a
snippet:
"Who came up with the original concept of CCC?
[Andrew Dodd] The CATALYST Control Center Architect Wayne Louie, came up
with the concept of a stand-alone, totally customizable user interface a
couple years ago. Once the original Idea was conceived we brain-stormed a
huge number of ideas that we knew would make the new user interface a
totally incredible product. "

Reading DH's conclusion makes me sick. ATIHeaven.net all the way. Why did they forgot to mention that that Control Center eats up to 60mb of RAM, installed a dozen of new processes, slows down your PC, can cause crashes and in fact only changes the location of all the options and does not really add anything new? |
