Running the beta now, but out of tasks, might do some bench testing to see if there is any obvious difference to 285 series for us.
[A bit Later:] x41g Cuda 3.2 & later dev builds running more or less the same speed , on GTX 480 [both v6 & v7 test tasks], with the beta driver under bench compared to earlier 285 driver benches. Could be some fractions of second in it at some ARs, either way still seem like great drivers (as 285 series did here anyway). Fingers crossed they get Cuda 4.1 final release right for the older cards, will have to wait & see if I can move to using some of the new features.

Richard Haselgrove:
Would an 'older card' (i.e. 9800 GT-series) beta bench be useful at this stage? (I don't usually upgrade drivers until the WHQL stage). If so, XP or Win7 (it'll be 32bit without the option).

I have to wonder if that is going to matter since the new ATI apps are incompatible with cat 11.10 and cat 11.11 drivers. Will this solve the incompatibility problem ?

At least there is some hope.
And to be honest the apps arenīt incompatible with those drivers.
The drivers produce faulty results.
Thats a difference.
