    Benefits of Catalyst Control Center?


    Hi folks...

    Since moving to Win-7 I've only been using the ATI graphics driver.

    My video card is a lowly ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT, nothing fancy but suits my needs perfectly well. I don't play games on this PC, it functions as a multi-track audio recorder + Audio mastering and CD/DVD burner.

    Do I have anything to gain using the CCC?
    I've been sticking with a single monitor while testing Win-7 but would like to add my second monitor, I'm presuming CCC would be required to configure the second monitor.

    Thanks-

    Since you dont play games, I dont see much point in it unless you need to control groups of monitors.

    Since I'm going to be adding my second monitor I'll install CCC.
