Does anyone know the release date of the next set of Catalyst drivers?

[faxon]

im not quite happy with the drivers that came with my Sapphire 4670 since they are lacking some of the typical features seen in catalyst drivers (such as GPU temperature monitoring), and AMD doesnt have any drivers for the HD4600 cards on their site, only 4870 and 4850. so, any idea of when their next driver release will be?

You can get the 8.10 RC2 (I'm using them now, and haven't had any stability issues).

I'm not sure when the final release will be, but it should be soon (10 = 10th month, October).

cool i will try those and see how they work. have you had any issues OCing the card with those drivers? specifically with the RAM, and on stock cooling. i was going to try and open up some more bandwith to the GPU so i could get closer to 3870 performance out of it

Once a month, every month. "When they're ready," but usually towards the end.

The 8.10s supposedly add manual fan control to the Radeon 4000 series, according to an article I saw at Firingsquad.

8.9 really fixed most of the CF-X3 issues i has with Cat 8.8
- the fan profile is working together, the annoying whine is gone and they run cooler
