ATI Releases DX9 Driver and Demos

[Rav]

From ATI:

Beta drivers based on the release candidate version of DX9. I wish I had a system I could risk installing DX9 on to try this. Be cool to finally see those demos rendered real time! Tell us if you try it! Way to go ATI!

i installed all of the demos the beta driver and dx9 everything is working fine so far (and if anything goes wrong i dont care i gotta reformat anyways)... the demos are sweet especailly the animusic one... i can finally show the power of my card...

That car demo looks ool too, it looks so real I think I ould stick my hands in the monitor and pick it up

Just saw the Animusic, it was really cool, but I don't understand what it is showing off? Couldn't just about any vid card do that?

Thoose drivers and DX9 beta..really fuxxored up my system....games where lagging.
Some games looked like there where no LOD at all.

So now after reinstalling XP....I´m back to 8.1 and new 6200....thank god !!!!!!!

just cause the dx8.1 nvidia cards can't use all the features of these drivers doesn't mean some aspects of the drivers that still use the 8.1 hardware aren't improved from the last driver set.

once its a final i'll definately install them for that reason even though i don't have a dx9 card.

food for thought.
