Dynamic Power Management (3.11) and ASPM (3.10) support itself should make a huge difference for power consumption. Add in the various performance improvements in both the kernel driver and Mesa user land the FPS should be up quite a bit. (The Phoronix benchmarks say as much as 40% improvement.)
- XorNot 13y agoThe Radeon driver is still, despite it's faults, a way smoother experience then the fglrx driver - notably so if you want to use a compositing window manager (support still missing from AMDs proprietary end).
- blinkingled 13y agoYep, never ever used fglrx after radeon got usable. Allows me to upgrade kernels whenever I want and now a days it runs cool, has UVD supported and 3D/2D performance is quite decent for desktop use.
