The Daemon-powered Unvanquished game is much faster with the Ubuntu 13.10 drivers than the open-source state one year ago with Ubuntu 12.10, but the Catalyst blob was still faster.
Warsow was about three times faster than the open-source Radeon Gallium3D driver from one year ago, but the Catalyst driver was still more than 100 frames faster -- or 2.47x.
Xonotic with low quality settings showed just how much faster the Radeon HD 4870 graphics card was made over the past year with the open-source Radeon Gallium3D driver, but Catalyst for this high-end HD 4000 series GPU was 93% faster.
