Catalyst 4.5 Download


About AMD (ATI) Catalyst Drivers ATI's Windows Radeon driver package is called CATALYST. The CATALYST software was instituted after the release of the Radeon 8500, as a marketing effort to match nVidia's universal Detonator driver packages. This new driver development paradigm at ATI promised monthly driver updates which included performance enhancements, bug fixes, and new features. As of 2006, the CATALYST driver package typically included ATI's CATALYST Control Center; an interface for manipulating many of the hardware's functions within Windows XP, such as 3D settings, monitor controls, video options, among other things. It also offered a small 3D preview, allowing the user to see how changes to the graphics settings affected the quality of the rendered image. The old control panel interface (within Windows' Display Properties) was previously a fall-back option, but that has been discontinued as of CATALYST 5.13. The CATALYST package can be downloaded in pieces as well, for non-broadband users.
For example, the display driver can be downloaded alone, separated from the CATALYST Control Center and WDM VIVO drivers. Exciting features, ATI Catalyst provies the ATI Catalyst Control Centerâ„¢, delivering innovative features and unprecedented control of performance and graphical quality with ATI Radeon graphics. Robust stability, Catalyst drivers for Windows Vista and Windows XP are Microsoft WHQL-certified to deliver the industry's best stable graphics performance. Industry-leading performance, ATI Catalyst updates focuses on taking graphics performance to higher levels, including enhancements for popular Direct3D and OpenGL game titles.
