However, a flurry of updates makes me uneasy as it seems they are rushing things out and not doing their due diligence before releasing them. ID: 41622 ·

I think I will stay away from it due to the fact that the 11.11c drivers were erroring out all my work from Milkyway. I went all the way back to 11.2 again. ID: 41627 ·

Looks like that annoying wrong computations bug is fixed. So this driver is safe to use with MB7 ATi. About its performance - question under investigation now, all can test on their own hardware.

I don't see any change in performance for SETI with 11.12 or 12.1 But I think windows is smoother with 11.12 though.... Win Vista 32-bit TRuEQ & TuVaLu ID: 41642 ·
