AMD Catalyst 11.9
#1
Today the Catalyst v11.9 final came out and i tested it for use with oclHashcat*.

To make it short. From OpenCL view there is no change to Catalyst v11.8. Good thing is, since i lost my hope several versions before that AMD finally will fix the 100% CPU bug, i was not so disappointed this time.

Conclusion: Linux user still stick to Catalyst v11.4 + OpenCL SDK v2.4 and enjoy 0% CPU. Windows user can switch to v11.9 since all Windows versions are same bad.

It's worse than that. Try to recompile your kernels for sdk2.5/cat11.9. You will see half of them stop working correctly (while they likely used to run correctly even on sdk2.5/11.8).. That Catalyst release is a disaster Sad
