Thanks for sharing, orac1e!

Btw: These drivers do include the PhysX 8.09.04 driver, too.

lol cool, i was checking nvidia sites for new drivers yesterday - still nothing and now i see this tnx.

hm there's nothing special in readme pdf... i hope they're good, i tried 178.15 and IQ was the best so far (they didn't enable anisotropic mip sample optimization when you use anisotropic filtering)...

I can confirm that both 64-Bit versions (XP and Vista) seem to be corrupt:



Both 32-Bit versions seem to be OK, though.

I wouldn't fool with em... I've heard already besides the corruption issue is that they were pre-mature released. I think you will see the working drivers show up on the US servers soon.

nope its still here, this fake (aniso mip fitler optimization) performance boost which makes the image worse... im going back to 178.15





edit: this is with old 178.15 and as you see no aniso mip filter optimization

Installed fine with no problems at all on both my machines with Vista 64-bit. DV is working as it should. I'll run some benchmarks and post them up shortly.

Here are the original download links:


178.24 XP 32bit

178.24 XP64bit

178.24 Vista32bit

178.24 Vista 64bit

For some people these may be faster and easier to grab.

They seem to be on Nvidia's servers already, but not yet officially released, masterchiefx2.

(...and it should work with the GX2, also.)

Counter Strike: Source w/ Forceware 178.24
137.48FPS

Half Life 2: Lost Coast w/ Forceware 178.24
53.42FPS

Counter Strike: Source w/ Forceware 178.15
140.43FPS

Half Life 2: Lost Coast w/ Forceware 178.15
54.13FPS

So far there doesn't appear to be much difference between 178.24 and 178.15. I get a couple frames less in CSS but visually I don't notice a difference. Lost Coast lost maybe a frame and again, no visual differences.

Win XP 64 bit still shows as corrupted... multiple attempts to download & install.

edit: this is with old 178.15 and as you see no aniso mip filter optimization

U can switch it off, cant u? Or does "switching it off" NOT make a difference regarding to the quality?
