Just got word that Elitebastards.com have thrown up Hanner's Catalyst 3.5 On Test article using Unwinder's Detection scripts on ATI's latest drivers. There's a good bit of thought inside! Benchmarks included.
Recent months have been nothing short of a soap opera for both ATI and Nvidia and the followers of the two companies ? A soap opera that shows no sign of abating. I have no intention of going over the details of recent events yet again, as I?m sure anybody whose been living on planet Hardware recently will be more than aware of all the recent goings on. Instead, I?ll step in to the story at the point of the most recent allegations levelled against the two IHVs in Digit Life?s recent article. For those of you that missed it, Aleksei Nikolaichuk (better known to most as ?Unwinder?, the creator of RivaTuner) set about creating a script to disable the ability of both nVidia?s Detonator and ATi?s Catalyst drivers to detect when specific applications were running , thus eliminating their ability to optimize for those applications in any way. The outcome of this article left the community with just as many questions, if not more, as it gave us answers. As the test was run with ATI?s Catalyst 3.4 drivers, had anything been changed for the Catalyst 3.5s?
