They seem to be, always seeing improvements on games with them. Just need to see improvements in OpenGL now. Hopefully 4.9's will do just that.

This poll is RIGGED! Terry is going to have all of ATI Staff vote I think they are getting better. lol

Na, before the Catalyst drivers, I hated ATI. Had good hardware, but drivers was really horrible. Catalyst drivers have totally turned around ATI, good hardware, and very stable drivers. I don't think Terry or anyone at ATI would let their drivers get worse. You have a good team and keep up the good work. I look forward to seeing what ATI will come out with next,

i think they are gradually.but i don't expect huge increase of performance when they are released in a month appart from the previous.

(this don't include the unreleased ones being worked on)
