Title: Newer Cat. 11.8 preview for XP and Vista/7[Newer build]
Post by: Beta-coiner1 on August 10, 2011, 05:23:22 PM

Haven't tested these (http://www.guru3d.com/news/amd-catalyst-118-preview-driver-out-for-grabs/) yet but they seem to add mainly OpenGL 4.2 support.Just wondering if they finally got rid of the polbcm cpu bug.The only fix thus far I have found is to run separate instances of GUI miner for each GPU seems to work.

Would like to see the result of this. 11.7 has not been all that is cracked up to be.

I'm still running 11.5 w/no problems. If it ain't broke, don't fix it :)

Just tried these for XP and the desktop is quite unstable & unusable w/ the 100 % CPU bug,looks like the APP runtime has also been updated though.

you went back to 10.2? that seems a bit low. 11.6 didn't work well for you?
