4.9 with Catalyst Control Center

This needs .NET framework 1.1 and a Radeon better than 9500

I just installed the CCC version on my Win2k machine with a 9600pro.
As yet I don't see much advantage over the standard panel other than the preview mode, and not sure if I'll keep this or go back to the standard version.
certainly adds alot of overhead having to add .net and the driver package is 42meg+ vs 26 or so for the standard

one of the things i pointed out in my articles was that the CCCdoesn't really offer experienced people much of anything. I think it is geared to ythe younger or newer crowd. It does make things easier to find and better organizes the controls, the preview pane is cool, but thats about it. It is a bloated program .

so what is the best software to use for configuring the video settings?

ATI's own control panel is good, but RageTweak is the best, offers very advanced options!
