I got a card for a "testdrive" and wondered what drivers are you guys using with this one ?
Have you use any tweak utilities or OC'd that card?

...And I already was in 3D-Chipset and Rage3D/Rage underground pages

Just got one of those myself last week. I installed the drivers from the CD, so if anybody has any later ones let me know also.

I am getting fps rates in the 30's for the most part with a pIII-733 with 384megs ram.

Check www.rage3d.com

I've been using 7153 drivers without problems.

I an using the 4.13.7075 drivers with DX8.0a with no problems.

No utils here Staga.

I used to run radeon tweaker, but I never overclocked that much and the rest of its settings were just things you could set on your own but put in different menus, so I never put it back on when I did a clean install.

Installed it with 7075 drivers in ME. Gotta try later those beta-drivers.

Try 3Dchipset - all cards, newest drivers, even for GF 2Go!

Using the same as Skuzzy - no problems.

Hi All,
Running Radeon with 4.13.7115 drivers, DX8a

Played around with tweak utilities but usually screw it up so running with default settings

No problems

7115 drivers will have artifact issue in some games.
Rogue Spear and Operation Flashpoint goes for good example, if knows where to look from.
(might be that there was no issue with RS anymore, but in OF for sure)

7075 and 7153 are best drivers.
7153 excels in anything else but in FSAA.
With FSAA enabled 7153 can cause small anomalities.
In Operation Flashpoint with 7153, roads seen through slopes are fixed by disabling W-buffer

Not had a problem in AH with the 7115 drivers. But I'll give the 7153 drivers a bash though

*edit*
OK Installed 7153 drivers, Can't see any difference after a quick spin (Which is good). Did as complete a clean install as I know how (as I always do) - Delete all "ati*.inf" files, remove Registry entries etc. In short 7153 drivers seem fine

Snafu,

7115 has slight problems with Operation Flashpoint.
Also 7075 has menus flashing when transparent menu is layed on the background action.. and some rare times gunsight might flash quickly.
In 7115 this gunsight should anomality should be more common.
With 7153 not a single thing with W-buffer disabled
