User Interface dynamically updates based on available AMD hardware
Support for OpenGL 4.1
New features introduced in OpenGL 4.1
- Full compatibility with OpenGL ES 2.0 APIs for easier porting between mobile and desktop platforms
- The ability to query and load a binary for shader program objects to save re-compilation time
- The capability to bind programs individually to programmable stages for programming flexibility
- 64-bit floating-point component vertex shader inputs for higher geometric precision
- Multiple viewports for a rendering surface for increased rendering flexibility
Performance highlights:
F1 2010:
- Performance increases up to 12% on AMD Radeon™ HD 6900 and AMD Radeon™ HD 6800 Series single card configurations with anisotropic filtering and anti-aliasing disabled.
- Performance increases up to 10% on ATI Radeon™ HD 5800 Series single card configurations with anisotropic filtering and anti-aliasing disabled.
Left 4 Dead 2:
- Performance increases up to 17% on AMD Radeon™ HD 6800 Series single and Crossfire configurations with anisotropic filtering and anti-aliasing disabled.
- Performance increases up to 8% on AMD Radeon™ HD 6900 Series single configurations with anisotropic filtering and anti-aliasing disabled.
Di seguito le note fornite a corredo con i driver AMD Catalyst 11.1a Hotfix:
- Performance improvements for AMD Radeon™ HD 6900 & AMD Radeon HD 6800 series graphics cards
- AMD Catalyst Control Center – New Tessellation controls
- Gives users control over the tessellation levels used in applications
- AMD Catalyst AI Texture Filtering updates
- The High Quality setting remains unchanged: This setting provides reference quality filtering from AMD hardware
- The Quality setting now matches the High Quality setting in all respects but one: it enables an optimization that limits tri-linear anisotropic filtering to areas surrounding texture mipmap level transitions, while doing bilinear anisotropic filtering elsewhere. This optimization offers a way to adjust filtering performance without visibly affecting image quality
- The Performance setting has also been updated. It now provides a smooth filtering option that is designed to eliminate most shimmering while preserving the detail provided by anisotropic filtering
