FireGL X1 problems

Recently I was given the ATI Fire GL X1 128 Megabyte graphics card.

I understand that while this card is aimed at the high end workstation scenario and optimised for opengl based applications, I was wondering if there is a way I can improve the status of games when running them on this card.

I have installed the latest driverset for the GL X1 line of cards.

As this card is based on the 9700 gpu core - has anyone had any success getting Catalyst drivers installed? Do patched drivers exist ? The current driverset for this card is what seems to be the problem concerning running latest games / card demo's. Any help would be appreciated Smile

i don't know to be honest Smile but hay u were given a £1000+ graphics card so don't moan Tongue

If u like you could send me the FireGL X1 and i'll send u my Radeon9800 Tongue

I think most ppl want it the other way round tbh they want to patch there gaming card into a FireGL to get the OpenGL Application speed gains, but nevermind, you could always ask ATi if they would improve game speed or include a gaming mode for the card they do at least read every feedback email they get Smile

I'm not moaning lol! As tempting as an offer it may seem, I'll stick to my FireGL thanks Smile

I found that it was possible to create a set of drivers that are DX9 compatible for the X1. So far so good Smile
