Re: ATI Catalyst 10.11 Software Suite Vista/7

EDIT: I'll have to recant the happy-face about Overdrive, graphics memory is still raised to max at idle.

"Enabling Overdrive through the Catalyst™ Control Center for single display systems no longer results in GPU clocks running at high levels in non-GPU intensive scenarios"
Ahh, finally!

Edit: Just a heads up, this driver version does not support 6800 series cards. Stick to 10.10e beta or somesuch for your 68x0 card, they're newer anyway since official versions are slower to get out due to a slower release process.
