Here's the link, cause you won't be able to download it otherwise.

These drivers are nice!
3d Mark Score @400/350 Catalyst 5.11 4563
3d Mark Score @400/350 Catalyst 5.12 4624

I'll wait until I do the copper mod and I'm aiming at 5300 3dmark2005 score! 6800 ultras beware!

They also fixed the problem with FEAR and optimized it as well. Now if you rename FEAR.exe you get worse performance than if you leave FEAR.exe as it is.

so now these ati released drivers will work with out cards? last i heard only certain laptop manufacturers were supported.

should i get these instead of waiting for omegas?

duffydack · 12-08-2005, 05:01 PM

im sick to death of upgrading drivers.. bahhhhhhh

DanFortH · 12-08-2005, 05:37 PM

I know, me too. but I skipped the last 5.11 beta, so I guess I'm due. Thanks for the heads up, and thanks for the direct link, KAROLOYDI.

KAROLOYDI · 12-08-2005, 11:46 PM

Bookmark the link, cause it is the same link I used for the cat 511, so it will probably work for cat 513 as well.

---------
The Catalyst driver qualification has long been the domain of the notebook vendors, and if the current ones are any indication, they mostly are doing a miserable job.
...
ATI is about to change that a bit with the release of a new line of mobile catalyst drivers.
