Is this statement true, or is there even an ounce of truth in it:
1) "You should use the ATI Catalyst drivers that were current for your video card, not necessarily the latest ones."
Because I ran 10.7 and my system used to freeze up but when I roll back to 10.4 I don't get freezes...
So for me this seems true... or do I just have a faulty card?
I've heard this as well:
2) "Some ATI Catalyst drivers (10.x) can overheat certain components (like chips and transistors) on certain cards."
Is there an ounce of truth in that statement?
To be honest, even though 10.4 have worked OK now and I agree with "if it ain't broke, don't fix it", I wouldn't mind upgrading my drivers to 10.9, for possible performance increase.
What do you think?
