I've heard that 3.1 was to increase the performance of 8500 and 9000 and as ATI promised they did increase by an amazing 15-20% in performance. However, when the 3.3 comes out will the 9500/9700 Pro series receive a big boost. This is because I've heard that ATI had optimized many things.

the title doesnt say there is a question just says about, could just be informing us, and i have also heard that the 3.3 drivers are supposed to increase preformance for the 9700/9500 series, and all i know is that the 3.2 drivers screwed up a couple things on my comp so im still on 3.1

My Opinion On Catalyst 3.2

Pros.
Display Control Panel Opens faster
Display Control Panel is more organised.

Cons.
C&C Generals runs dodgy(occasional jerkyness/slowdown)
3D Mark scores are lowered(on my system) by 200 points.

Pretty much even, but the Generals thing is a big point for me.
Ive currently using Cat3.1 BTY.
