which version did you install? i had the 9013s in the machine that has the ATI and wasn't THAT happy with it. tho't i had checked recently too, but based on your post, i went back and took another look.
sure enough! a newer version, 9021, was out. i just installed it and am getting better performance than with the 9013 set.
LOL! and here i am telling everyone to double check their drivers. ::hangs her head in shame:: LOL. apparently this set is fully optimized for DX 8.1.
i even turned some of the settings up higher. thanks for the heads up, saltheart!
