Needless to say, I have removed it and am reinstalling 9.5 as that worked just fine. ID: 25756 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

I'm sticking with 8.12 on all my machines until CP releases a client made in Catalyst 9.2+. Only reason for upgrading would be if you use the machine for gaming also.

I'm sticking with 8.12 until I find a higher-numbered version of CCC that will run CP's app. Which is essentially what borandi said... Cheers, PeterV . ID: 25764 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

Not saying you didn't. Didn't say it was a bad thing either. I've split funds to have a gaming machine with an nVidia card, and a couple of crunchers with ATi cards. Though to be fair when MW work was low, the ATi cards in crossfire at stock speeds outperformed the nVidia on a 27% overclock. Still awaiting the 2010 Codemasters F1 game though... In the meantime some FarCry 2 and HAWX will have to do - as well as the odd Commander Keen: ID: 25769 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote

I had a similar experience. 9.6 isn't ready for crunching duty but fortunately 9.5 seems to work pretty well. ID: 25860 · Rating: 0 · rate: / Reply Quote
