IMO... i agree, the old one was getting a bit dated.... not really getting you all the information that you could/should be able to get at easily..... but this method is a step forward in terms of making it available... but a step backwards as the menu contruction seems even more dated.... something i would expect browsing through the registry... same tree layout "idea" i beleive...

It's the simple fact that they put it on the left colum, making it tight, barely able to fit anything, and no way to really explaining what each is. People get closter phobic (spelling i know)

The new layout is fine...IF you are running Internet Explorer, the issue I have is the side bar not functioning in Firefox.



note all of those menu items are open at the start and cannot be closed.

Quicker = better, therefore the new one wins.

I actually thought that the page handnt loaded properly. I kept refreshing it, to be honest I think its an emabarresment to ATI.

A total diaster, in my opinion.

tis fugly, and that's coming from someone who likes the ancient "tree" setup. if i was running IE rather than FF i may feel differently.

i fear for any newbie's who try to find what they need. many people don't know the difference between linux and windows, let alone with version of windows they have. and the tree setup is more advanced than many users i encounter on a daily basis.

Well, I'm a dedicated user of omega drivers for my ATi, so I haven't seen it, but judging by the look of it, it isn't all that pretty from what I can see...

Perhaps, but the site navigation is not what is in question here.

I think the new section is great, but i also think ATI needs a better looking website.
