Phoronix "the AMD miracle".
Aspetto con impazienza che il mio package manager me la installi :)

beh i beta erano in giro da un paio di settimane ehehhe
cmq leggevo che siccome 6970 e 6950 hanno praticamente architettura 
diversa da 6800, stanno riscrivendo i driver sia dx che OGL.
su win 7 con la serie 58xx con i soliti giochi con questi 10.10 (oltre a 
un paio di nuove feature per il multimedia) ci sono incrementi qua e la 
tra i 5% e il 10% su una marea di titoli...

E qui ci sono i 10.10a hotfix;

serve solo a chi ha le 6800 ora della fine ;-)
essendo non whql, a sto punto lo si pu� anche lasciare li ehehheh

 tra i 5% e il 10% su una marea di titoli...
A me degli incrementi del 5% non me ne frega un cazzo, voglio che fixino
i soliti problemi del cazzo che le AMD hanno e le nVidia no, oltre ad un
miglior supporto VAAPI (che sembra restare fallace).
