Bosco Posted November 25, 2009 Posted November 25, 2009 Monthly updates aren't frequent enough? ATi will release additional drives in a month if they really screw things up. But how often does the average person update their video drivers? I'd say once every 10+ months. I am guessing you have not played games that were not supported by ATI drivers on launch day. We had to wait over 2 months to get a proper driver for GTA, as well we had to wait a few months for performance drivers for other games that was my point.

Baulten Posted November 25, 2009 Posted November 25, 2009 I'm in the "Driver issues? What driver issues?" category. I had a Radeon 9200 and never had issues, then switched to GeForce 5200FX (I know, lawl), no issues, finally went to a nice 8600GT... still no issues... GTX 260... no issues... HD 4870 CFX for a little bit... no issues... now HD 5870, no issues. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't happen to everyone it only happens with certain titles if you don't play those titles you have nothing to worry about.

Sure its an older game but has a huge community. Nvidia is not immune with the shimmering issue but it is playable at max detail. Plus ATI still do not have user configurable game profiles.
