Windows 7 32-bit drivers for 7970?

[ShadesOfMarble]

...where can I find them? Are they shipping with the card (on cd)? Or ist there no Win7 32-bit support yet?

Have you checked the ATI website?  O_o

I did, but it looks like you dind't. There are only drivers for Vista 32/64 and Win7 64. No XP and no Win7 32.

win7 is basically a vista..  you should try the vista32?

They are on cd. And i noticed i get almost extra +5% performance with them versus 64bit win7 and latest drivers from ati website.

I'd imagine that a 7970 driver for 32 bit windows would be basically worthless.  Since the non-server versions of 32 bit Windows only have 4GB of address space, one 7970 would take up 3/4 of it and you'd have a whopping 1GB of system RAM available for use.  If you added a 2nd card, you'd surpass the total available address space.  You'd either have no system RAM available for use, or you just wouldn't be able to use more than 1 card.

Now that 12.2 is available this thread is obsolete, thanks everyone.
