and they even removed the fast link and updates to the current downloadble drivers.. and you have to go into sub menus just to know which is the latest..

this really sucks..

Even if they promoted it as "ATI powered by AMD", atleast it keeps an awesome brand alive!

Going green sucks... demoting ATI to almost a product line of AMD just doesn't work in my mind...

AMD say they plan to keep discrete graphics alive; well if you ask me, there's going to be a hell of a lot of confused people out there wondering what the difference between an NVIDIA graphics card and AMD CPU or AMD graphics card is! (well not on driverheaven ofcourse, but you know what i mean )

But can you imagine, some guy in PC World - "Erm ok, so I need an AMD CPU, but oh right and an AMD ATI Card, what's this do then? So what's NVIDIA on this other PC? Can't I just have NVIDIA and not AMD?" ummm

I don't think people are ready for "AMD Graphics" yet, and until they lose all Intel licences, it would be premature to brand the motherboards as AMD.

Also leads to the inevitable questions about using AMD Graphics with a non-AMD processor.

It's really the same site (even the problems with Firefox/SeaMonkey are the same). They just changed the theme.

All that matters is how quickly you can find the driver section and that's in the same place as before. Although the link to the drivers doesn't work for me.

it's the exact same site guys.....right down to the clunky tree-structured ASP pages full of links.

THey simply changed the front page, the URL, and the CSS to "green". Although, the links in the drop down menus on the front page still light up red, which i find kind of funny since they went to such lengths to make everything else green and pruple [why purple?]


I like it though....it's clean and effective, and didn't really change aside from some styling queues from the new corporate landscape.


I do however, think HP is taking a much better road with their buyout of VoodooPC then AMD has with ATi, however. ATi is too powerful a brand name to toss to the wind like that, but nobody asked me

Bright pink with 60's colours if done right could actually look cool!
Like someone else said before me, the latest driver should be shown on the home page.
Thankfully other sites usually announce when new drivers are released, speaking of which not many days of this month left, I'm looking forward to the 6.10's.

I noticed that most people think the site is awful...
frankly I think it just looks and functions the same, what ever subtle differences there are I have not realized yet...
bloody whiners..
