As usual the newly introduced feature doesn't work right, but that's ok, because it's not enabled by default.
I wonder why you didn't mention the points where catalyst not only loses but that makes me want to buy a nvidia card next.
I mentioned the bugs introduces with nearly every new release. Just look at the forums, plenty of it. Vsync with 30 fps and extremely laggy, black artifacts in firefox/pidgin, etc. pp.
Would you not agree to someone here who said he doesn't dare to press alt-tab on fullscreen-3d-windows because you really don't know what will happen?
Will it freeze your X? Will it [defunct] it? Will you get "BUG: scheduling while atomic: X/4405/0x10000002"? Anyway you shouldn't change to an maximized window. It will be behind the fullscreen window AND it will have the focus. You then need to use alt-tab blindly (all indication will be hidden behind the fullscreen window) to set the fullscreen window active. Really funny, try it.
The anti-tearing thing is strange in 2D. 3D works surprisingly extremely well but 2D really feels laggy. The window title bar sometimes has graphics corruption, but it's not too bad.
As for video acceleration... I said it is laggy. I'm not making this up it's occassionally omitting up to a second of Frames. I wouldn't want to watch a video with this kind of stuttering.
And then there is the issue of how the graphics feels. Even in warcraft 3 the difference is notably smoother with nvidia. While with fglrx the fps are good, it just does fell better with nvidia. Oh, and in half life 2 the difference is extremely. Really, try it. Well, if half life 2 finally works again. Since 2 catalyst releases it is broken with wine. Near water fps will drop to < 1 fps if you look into the wrong direction and when going near the surface it completely freezes. Well, with OffscreenRendering?fbo it does. With backbuffer the FPS don't drop and it only sometimes crashes under water. But then, most of the game is drawn horizontally mirrored.
I really encourage you to try it with nvidia. Same configuration, extremely smooth gameplay without issues.
It may be that nvidia works closer with wine together but if so, AMD SHOULD DO IT TOO!!
I don't even start to wonder why amdcccle always segfaults on quitting
Code:
amdcccle[6819]: segfault at 20 ip 00007fa567cb27a6 sp 00007fff6513db50 error 4 in libc-2.13.so[7fa567c3f000+158000]
None.
The only thing is that it's graphics memory is broken so it will crash if you keep filling it with 3d applications.
I would prefer using it over my HD 4670 any time. Not because I somehow like nvidia but because it actually has nearly no issues whereas fglrx has many.
