CATALYST is the industry's leading software suite that includes unified driver and software applications for ATI's Radeon family of graphics products. This software suite is based on the foundations of stability, performance, quality and innovation. Among its many new features, Version 3.4 is designed to improve video card performance by up to 30 per cent in certain applications.

CATALYST 3.4 enhancements include:
