Catalyst+wine performance was really bad, now i play with d3dstream.
My favorite steam games work very well, too.
Meanwhile catalyst is stuck at 14.12 which had a severe performance drop for me (especially with wine).
Interstellar Marines was unplayable with catalyst. Works fine with gallium.
Propably it is true, wine's bad performance with MESA/opengl and catalyst is not wine's fault but recently emerged wine-modifications (wine-csmt/wine-staging, wine-d3dstream) do show a strong desire for better wine performance not only for not-nvidia fans.
By the way: 25000 lines only for d3dstream may sound impressive but honestly: How much effort can it be to maintain code which just wraps native d3d9 API?
