As a rule it’s only gamer that are interested in new graphics card drivers, but the latest Catalyst 11.4 drivers released by AMD should be of interest to Firefox 4 user running Windows 7 this time around.

Why Firefox 4 users? Well, take a look at this entry from the release notes:

The GPU no longer shows high GPU usage after running Firefox 4 with hardware acceleration enabled.

So, if you run Firefox 4 on Windows 7 and have hardware acceleration enabled, you need these drivers.

Go get em!

Hi Highwayman,

I don't believe it's a setting, it's simply enabled by default when you have hardware accelleration enabled properly.
