It's that time again: ATI have released a new version of their Catalyst drivers - 5.11. Most people know of the benefits of running the latest drivers. and this release is no different: speed boosts in OpenGL games and better support for the recently released X1000 family of graphics cards.

A few weeks ago, there was an 'OpenGL' fix passed down to journalists by ATI's driver team. This was said to improve average frame rates by a considerable amount. At the time we were also told that the 'fix' would be implemented into a future driver release. Catalyst 5.11 makes that fix a reality for the public.

Basically, the Catalyst team have tweaked the new ring bus memory controller with a few registry entries that have enabled them to gain higher frame rates when Anti-Aliasing is enabled at high resolution on Radeon X1000-series video cards.
