Will there be a release of Cat 3.0 drivers for 'powered by' cards as ATI recommends the staying with the 2.5 ones just now. Any clues?

Have you tried installing the Cat 3's? They install and work just fine on my Hercules 9700 Pro

Yeh I did and got terible OGL stutters. I did also try the Omega ones and got similar results.

I have a Sapphire R9000 non Pro 128MB

Have you tried turning hardware acceleration down a notch? Cured all my stutter probs and speeded things up!

Haven't tried that yet. Think I'll stick with the cat 2.5's the now. Cheers anyhow!
