Default ATI Catalyst 10.10 Drivers
So they were released just the other day.
Just wondering if anyone has tried them yet.
If so, care to share your results?
I'm debating whether I should leave my 10.5 comfort zone with my 5970,
because everything after 10.5 has been absolute shit for me.

Also, would it be necessary for one to use driver sweeper in safemode and all that stuff, just for going from 10.5 to 10.10?

To be honest, I went from 10.5 (when I first got my HD5870) and upgraded to the next Catalyst version without cleanup every time AMD came up with a new version of Catalyst, no issues. I know that it's always better to driversweep...but I never do, unless I come across a driver issue...which I didn't have with my HD5870 YET...crossing fingers!

I just installed Cat 10.10 and the ATI STREAM package (renamed to AMD Catalyst™ Accelerated Parallel Processing (APP)) (OPEN CL and DIRECT COMPUTE 5.0 enabled)

Anyway, no issues yet. Temperatures are the same, FPS seems maybe a little higher, something like 5 fps extra in BFBC2 at the same settings...

I haven't tested any other games yet, and of all the games mentioned in the "improvement section" of the driver's read me file..I don't have any installed to compare...

Drivers working fine here too. Also opted for the OpenCL drivers just for kicks. Not that I have a single app that uses it though

AHHHHHHHHHH!!! This same damn thing happens to me whenever I try to install any ATI driver. Its sooo annoying! In the Catalyst install manager thing, there is a note saying WARNING: screen may flicker or go blank during this. And then it does go blank and nothing happens. I thought of leaving it alone for a while and I came back 3 hours later, and nothing changes. It happens so many times. Only a few times it didnt happen, and I doubt that the installation was successful. :'(

No change for me with the Radeon 4870 (tried Folding and Dragon Age: Origins). I went from 10.9 to 10.10. Maybe they're not doing anything aggressive for my older GPU (as I saw nothing significant to that series of card).
