Available for download, the new ATI 5.9 suite updates both the ATI Display Driver (version 8.172), and the Catalyst Control Center (version 5.9).

This unified driver has been further enhanced to provide the highest level of power, performance, and reliability.

The new suite introduces the Display Abstraction Layer (DAL) activation of driver message events for notification of controller configuration changes. This feature applies to all supported operating systems.

Catalyst 5.9 also introduces directional motion adaptive deinterlacing algorithm through the 3D shader. The algorithm will detect edges in 5 different directions. This reduces artifacts, and improves the overall detinterlace video quality.
