AMD ha rilasciato la versione 11.2 WHQL della Catalyst Software Suite che introduce l'implementazione dei controlli per la tessellazione, oltre a tutti i miglioramenti sotto elencati:

Gaming performance improvements:

  • Call of Duty:Black Ops: Performance increases up to 11% on ATI Radeon HD 5000 Series single card configurations with anisotropic filtering and anti-aliasing enabled.
  • Batman Arkham Asylum:Performance increases up to 4% on ATI Radeon HD 5000 Series single configurations with anisotropic filtering and anti-aliasing disabled.


Catalyst AI Texture Filtering updates

  • The Quality setting has now been improved to match the High Quality setting in all respects but one;it enables an optimization that limits tri-linear anisotropic filtering to areas surrounding texture mipmap level transitions,while doing bilinear anisotropic filtering elsewhere.This optimization offers a way to improve filtering performance without visibly affecting image quality.
  • The Performance setting has been updated to address the sharpness of the default Quality setting causing shimmering in certain cases.It now provides a smoother filtering option that eliminates most shimmering while preserving the improved detail provided by anisotropic filtering.


Tessellation Controls

  • Supported on the ATI Radeon HD 5000 Series and the AMD Radeon HD 6000 Series
  • New settings give users full control over the Tessellation levels used in applications.
  • Morphological Anti-Aliasing support for the ATI Radeon HD 5000 Series


Support Video Quality settings during Blu-ray 3D playback

  • Supported on the AMD Radeon HD 6000 Series
  • Requires Blu-ray 3D player software, 3D supported display and 3D Stereoscopic glasses
  • Users can now enable the Video Quality settings within the Catalyst Control Center when playing Blu-ray 3D content
