The last Catalyst release, 8.12, offered huge improvements to all Radeon owners excepting those with multiple HD4850s.  The hotfix for the 8.12 even cheered those unfortunates up, as it fixed the degradation they were seeing.  Just yesterday we saw the release of the first driver for this year, Catalyst 9.1, which adds support for OpenGL, but not much in the way of other features.  X-bit Labs compares the 8.12 driver, both with and without the hotfix, against the new 9.1 driver.  The results are a little dissapointing, coming on the heels of the 8.12.


“Every now and then graphics card makers claim that their products perform better with the new driver versions. We decided to find out how true these claims actually are.”
