| Re: Catalyst 8.7 is out I just hope they fixed some bugs I reported to them, involving Loki Heroes Of Mythology, Neverwinter Nights 2, Battle For Middle Earth 2, and a couple of other game bugs I reported to them.

| Re: Catalyst 8.7 is out Doesn't look like the fan issue has been solved yet from reading other forums. I have my Diamond HD 4870 and a Asus P5Q Pro on the way, should arrive by the weekend

| Re: Catalyst 8.7 is out Most of the fan issues on the 3870X2 cards were resolved with a bios update. ATI still hasn't fixed a series of bugs I reported to them. I honestly wonder what is their friggin problem, and do they have they heads in the sand.

| Re: Catalyst 8.7 is out He was talking about the 48xx fan issues. You have to manually edit some settings after creating a profile in CCC.
