Hello,

Video being one of the most imprtant if not THE most important pieces
of hardware to upgrade here is the ATI card I have: (copied from the
Catalyst info tab)

Graphics Card Manufacturer Built by ATI

Vendor 1002

Will the new 7.1 drivers work nicely?

Anything to keep a lookout for?

You shouldn't see any problems other than the "known issues" as described in
the 7.1 driver release notes.

I do not use or know what crossfire is.
