Quote:Here's a question that's been bugging me forever. What's a Catalyst driver? Is "Catalyst" just what ATI calls their drivers, or is it some sort of super-l337 kind of video card driver?
It's just what ATI calls their drivers. A "super-l337" kind of video card driver would be the DNA drivers (which are modified/hacked Catalyst drivers), an the Omega drivers. I'm not to sure about the Omega drivers but from what I have read the DNA drivers are better anyway. It doesn't take long for new DNA drivers to come out after a new release of the Catalyst drivers. I was looking into getting the DNA 3.0.4.9 driver which is based on the Catalyst 4.9's but seeing as a new Catalyst driver is on the verge of release I will wait and get the Cats. When the DNA drivers follow suite I will look into them and see if they are worth getting.
