without ati driver i got a 767 for drawing bitmaps

with the driver i got 745

so there is a tradeoff

also to note, with out the ati driver my d3d test applications were slower but supported more things, example the lighting test had more colors.

you can try this yourself

warning! without the ati driver these tests will be extremely slow and may slow down your phone, but dont worry if that happens just soft reset
