When is Catalyst AI being released/Will it be in a seperate package or in a catalyst

If catalyst then which one?
I signed up just to ask this.
I have a 9800 pro, how much will it help me out?
Im confused about the optimizations...says for 4xx and the 9600 series. What about ME?

I assume they should be in the next offical release of CCC, which should be relesed with or around the same time the new drivers...

MindlessOath is on a distinguished road

it will be released in october.

it will be a conjunction of both drivers and CCC.

of course u will need CCC to enable the option, and since it has some detailed instructions, you may need CCC to have it work for sure, but no doubtfully u will need the 4.10 drivers aswell. but then again we wont know until around october 6th or was it the 12th, i forget anywhere from the 6th to the 13th

Yes they did, the R3XX series gets a bigger boost supposedly. We shall see -- hopefully Omega will find a way to enable this with his drivers (sans CCC) in the 4.10 release. It will be exciting if he does.

He prolly will. Cuz to my knowledge, every setting in cp\ccc is stored in regedit.

what i would like to see is for catalyst AI to monitor CPU process's and its Load, and then tell cat AI how to work based on it, giving less instructions to the CPU if its under a higher load from other work, etc.

that would be a great advantage in cat A.I. other than what it does already... cause it basically does the optimizations based on annaylasis on the game itself, so an extra detail may be more complex, but will even out things and make better outcome.
