Catalyst 4.2 is out

so anybody know if it's any good? I had 4.1 and it was really slowing my Radeon 9800 Pro a bunch.

what's everyone's favorite catalyst right now?

You have 3.9 and 3.8, those are both older than 3.10.

It's such a pain in the butt to change out the old drivers and software changes for my ATI TV Tuner, Remote Control & my 9600 that I might wait until they stop making the updates. (Maybe)

Anyone try this newest driver on a 9600 non pro?

ATI is worse than Microsoft!

Cheers!

If ya read the news you would have known days ago
So far I haven't had too much time to test out the 4.2 drivers, but they work great here on a radeon 9000 pro. I actually never had a problem with the 3.7, 3.8, 3.9, 3.10, 4.1, 4.2, they all work here smoothly and that is all i care about.
It does look like there were a few performance increases but i have yet to try UT2003 or UT2004 demo on it.

I've got the 4.2 installed, and is working fine for me on my 9800 NP @ FTP(Faster Then Pro) speed.

Played lotsa games, NFS Underground, call of duty, MOHAA, all worked fine. Ohh, and Diablo 2 ofcourse.
