ATi heeft zojuist in de vorm van finalversie 4.7 nieuwe Catalyst-stuurprogramma's op zijn site online gezet. In midden juni werd eerder al de bèta-uitvoering van de 4.7-tak uitgebracht. De drivers zijn bedoeld voor de mensen die een Radeon-videokaart in hun Windows 2000- of Windows XP-systeem gebruiken. In de 4.7-release zijn wederom een zooi aanpassingen verricht. Hieronder kan je een beknopt overzicht vinden van de release notes:
