If I can recall, aren't ATI/AMD's Vista drivers working out well?

Mike.

 

ati`s works great (i know cause i had an x1900xtx that was working great when vista was in BETA!!!)

can you freaking believe it

 

That's what I thought. Can't wait for the R600! He he.

I get Keita Iida's point here:

But what about the other cards? Pretty much everyone is suffering.

Mike.

 

that is a LAME excuse
you dont think ATI is working on drivers for DX10?

 

ATI cards are NOT DX10 yet there still only DX9 drivers
there DX 10 cards are not out yet

 

Wait, what? No I think I must have typed something wrong. I was stating that even from that person's excuse ATI STILL has better Vista drivers than Nvidia.

Mike.

 

DX10 has been out forever (to the devs)

you dont think when nvidia DESIGNED their vcard that they didnt start working on the drivers then?

they can emulate their hardware without even having hardware.

ATI started when NVIDIA started developing drivers dont you ever thing anyting different

 

we will see ATI cant even release there DX10 cards because they dont work yet with there drivers

 

"I can assure you and your readers that our first priority right now is not performance"

Oh, that is just wonderful. The one thing I am waiting for is the one thing they're not working on.

 

YES YOU ARE CORRECT THEY ARE NOT READY!
JUST LIKE NVIDIAS!!!!

 

that is exactly what i thought!

its been 5months about...when do they start working on performance?

when exactly did NVIDIA start working on this driver....they act like they got their copy of windows vista a day before they launched the product

 

so when will they prioritize performance then..

the one thing id like to know is...

are we assured that the 8800 wont be a repeat of the FX fiasco?

 

Indeed only time will tell, and until then I am holding off on upgrading.

Months have past and still we are hearing this crap, enthusiast are really taking it in the ass on this one. It's going to be quite frustrating if I have to wait until 2008 to upgrade.

 

Gotta love it!,2 paragraphs devoted to not answering the question.Makes me wanna buy an ATI.

 

What a bunch of double talk and BS.

nVidia has had the DirectX10 spec since Vista was first developed, otherwise they wouldn't know what spec to build their cards to. Sounds more and more like a hardware issues with the 8800's otherwise it would have been fixed by now and now there scrambling for any excuse they can find.

 

ForceWare for Vista also works fine. Or is it just me who's so damn lucky? I doubt it...

 

....

 

odd i use the nvidia driver 100.65 WHQL and it play the same as xp but a little faster in some games. from what they said the driver need to be stable first because working on the speed and IQ and suff.

 

I haven't had any issues, but the think is with all the issues they having with the 8 series cards, I not feeling to upgrade.
