AMD announced Thursday it will release an update to its ATI Catalyst driver in December. The free download will enable users to tap into their ATI Radeon graphics cards’ heretofore hidden ATI Stream acceleration capabilities the company has already built into millions of the graphics cards. This means any application that is written to make use of the graphic processing unit’s parallel processing abilities will see significant performance improvements, according to the company. The drivers will be made available around Dec. 10.
