my powercolor ati radeon 9200se just got better

**cyber_urbantribe** · 01-31-2006, 07:04 PM

guys, i tested that using a 3rd party vga driver for my radeon 9200se gave me more performance than the original ATI Catalyst. Im currently using Omega 2.6.75a catalyst for ATI cards. I only have 256mb pc3200 on an athlonxp 2200+ rig using asus a7v8xx board.

now, gaming is more fun, can now use stylish black and white pixel shading, and 4x anti-aliasing with anisotrophic filter. I experienced no lagged when playing NFSMW, though loading time is quite slow.

i know now that adding more system memory will give me the chance to use the full capacity of this old card using this driver.

I plan on using this driver and will update on this same driver when needed. but of course, my card is not optimized for overclocking, though i could, dont wanna mess with my vga bios.

u can check out Omega driver at this site: http://www.omegadrivers.net/

they have 3rd party modded drivers for both ATI and nVidia based cards.

mao bitaw gyud na purpose sa mga modded drivers... kung dili ka makontento sa mga default nga drivers, then go for modded drivers.

yup, i use 4x AA sa NFSMW na profile i created using ATI Tray Tool. daghang tweaks na pwede i-test using omega driver. first time pa gyud ko ka-experienced ng pixel shader feature sa akong vcard when i use this driver.

kadto sa game proper, wa na ko gi-set tong AA, sa game profile ra. i tested it several times if naay difference sa textures, using no AA and 4x AA. mas nindot tong naay 4x AA. dili man nako gihilabtan tong settings sa in-game, same ra gihapon, kadtong driver man ang nag-set.

free yang driver... just google omega driver.

^^imposible na bai dili gyud na kadagan kung i set ang AA to 4X..i was using the same card as yours also before i upgraded to 6600GT..bati na gani ang gameplay sa NFS1 @ high settings with No AA.

i used omega driver & ATI tool..overclocked stock clock 200Mhz to 300Mhz..mems @133 to 200Mhz.
