Elite Bastards posted their ATI Catalyst 10.2 and 10.3 feature preview
Starting with the bad news, Catalyst 10.2 won't be bringing us user customisable application profiles to the table, despite all of the clamour for just this feature over recent years. However, the good news is that what ATI have done is to effectively split the part of their driver that deals with application profiles out into its own discrete file, meaning that updates to this profile list can be released separately by ATI for download by users at any time as required. So, rather than having to remain in line with monthly driver releases, new profiles can be released several times a day if required, to ensure that the latest games are supported properly as soon as the driver team have tested and created the required profile. These profiles won't just be limited to adding in CrossFire support either (although it will probably remain their primary purpose), as profiles can also be used to fix other compatibility issues such as the ability to force anti-aliasing in certain titles and the like, making the new system good news even for those running only a single GPU in their machine.ATI Catalyst 10.2 and 10.3 feature preview - CrossFireX profiles and more
