Windows XP with an ATI RADEON™ X800 series installed no longer results
in triple buffering failing when enabling the option in the CATALYST™
CONTROL CENTER

XP may result in the game failing to launch

devices

an HDTV connected as the primary display device

An error message is no longer displayed when attempting to switch a secondary
display device back to the primary display device when using the CATALYST™
CONTROL CENTER

Performance Improvements for CATALYST™ Display Driver Version
4.12

Driver efficiency has improved considerably for both Direct3D and OpenGL.

Numerous D3D games show 2-3% gains at low resolution. The small batch size tests
in 3DMark05 show improvements as large as 15% on some products.
In OpenGL, several game titles show improvements in the lower settings. Wolfenstein
– Enemy Territory, for instance, shows gains as large as 15% in low resolution
(driver-bound) cases. Doom III performance improves 5-10% at low settings. Call
of Duty improves 5-6%.
Half-Life 2 performance also improves as much as 20% over Catalyst 4.11 in certain
sections of the game.
