I just updated to the ATI Catalyst 3.4 drivers and now I get :
3DMark 2002- 15493
3DMark 2003- 5082
No overclocking involved and no background programs terminated, just my normal Win XP configuration.

The new 3.4 Catalysts didn't do anything for my setup...
Also disappointed that I lost my 9700 - 9800 softmod capabilities. |

I saw modest increases in my scores, but I did see some improvement in DVD playback in picture quality using either Power DVD or the ATI DVD player... video was a little sharper, with fewer artifacts and jagged edges so I'm happy.  |
