    3.6 Catalysts

    Very simple really - Do the 3.6 Catalysts (the new ones) REQUIRE DX 9 or can I still use DX 8.1?

    Thanks

    They'll probably still run with DX8.1. This brings up a better question. Why not just upgrade to DX9 and not even worry about whether or not the Catalyst 3.6 drivers will work with DX8.1?
    yo trick, why you so **** doofus?

    Well because DX7 was followed by an update, and DX8 was followed by an update, and I think i'll just wait a for a little more maturity. Or is it at 9.1 right now?

    Plus it's a machine that he uses for photo-editing, not 3D apps, and it's a dial-up connection. But it's having driver issues.

    The latest DirectX versions is 9.0b so it's already had a few updates.

    Yup weve already had Dx9.0, Dx9.0a and are now onto Dx9.0b...i'd say its fairly well matured by now, though there will no doubt be a .1 revision one day
