AMD 8.34.8 Display Driver
Last month with the 8.33.6 release we had seen the first signs of Radeon X2000 (R600) product support. The AMD Radeon Xpress 1250 IGP (both Intel and AMD processor models) are supported by today's driver. Additional work has gone into the 8.34.8 drivers with this release to prepare for the Radeon X2000 launch shortly. More information will be available shortly.

Once again using a Lenovo ThinkPad T60 with an ATI Mobility Radeon X1400 128MB we had compared this month's driver against the fglrx 8.33.6 driver. Enemy Territory and Quake 4 were used for our quantitative performance comparison.
