GTA Games)))) LOL

L.A.Noire profile has nothing to do with other profiles of the games...

Hi, I'd just like to know if anybody with a nVIDIA GeForce GTX 570 and BF3 have better performance and non flickering textures with sniper rifle scopes? very irritating. currently running 304.79

Thanks in Advance.

Can anyone confirm if these drivers still have the 1000mhz limit for 500series cards ?? 301.42 - 304.79 all do. 296.10s and prior don't have the limit.

Eg in afterburner overclocking past 1000mhz reverts back to 1000mhz straight away , its driver based.

The Textures do not flicker for me with this driver. But Performance is lower than 304.48.

Thanks. Will try them out then. surely performance isn't that bad.

ManuelG, there is any new driver planed for launch of guild wars 2, with sli support for example?

[Rapyer]

these have that annoying very very slightly fuzzy text (washed out edges or something) issue that is evident on 150 DPI on 120hz monitor (benq)


rolling back to 300.83 fixes the issue. with 305 version i get massive headaches looking and straining eyes on text, it has barely noticable but very evident washed out edges or something in all aplications, while 300.83 does not have that issue, fonts are clear and my eyes do not need to strain to read text

fxaa is off by the way.

ps i also use 150% zoom in chrome, so i notice it instantly when trying diff driver versions, font edges definitely more fuzzy with 305 than with 300.83

I noticed this too. Its extremely noticeable in Diablo III when skills flash up on the screen.

305.58 will be out in next few days and will apparently have gw2 fixes.

That is customer driver or Open-GL based one?

It will be an official release not a developer driver like these.

Good, can you please tell me where did that info come from? thanks.

It was released by the gw2 devs when asked about drivers

[kalston]

Zero difference for me, even OpenGL games don't seem to run any different.

In games only, or in windows/web browsers too?
I'm not noticing anything like that except for maybe with The Last Remnant. But I thought that was just because most of the 2DUI assets were geared for 720p..

That's just the way Prototype 2 is. There's a software bottleneck somewhere in the code, it can't keep my GTX680 loaded.

Because of this, the usage fluctuates wildly, and since the mouse input code is terrible as well, this causes the perceived mouse sensitivity to jump wildly, randomly. One second it's super-high, one second it's very low.

To "fix" this problem, I just created an artificial load to keep the GPU at > 90% usage at all times during the game, and that has mostly smoothed out the mouse handling. It results in only about 40 fps, but it's a tradeoff I'll accept.

To load down the GPU, I simply used nvidia inspector to force 8xMSAA with 8xSGSSAA (using AA behavior flags 0x004012C5 ) - you have to enable FXAA in-game for inspector to be able to override, but it does work.

if you want GTA 4 to run like a charm google this
Grand Theft Auto Lag Fix BETA 1.0 (FAST).exe

Was playing MW2 and the game stuttered for a split second and I checked the card and it's stuck in the mid way 2D clocks(in my case 400/405 Mhz)

Changing OC profiles, or stock wouldn't change it. Seems i'll have to restart for it to reset.

[The General]

Anyone know when they plan to release a official WHQL nvidia driver ?
I am still using the 301.42 and they work perfectly , no problems at all.

[Darren Hodgson]

There's a newer v305.67 driver. I posted this link in this thread: http://forums.guru3d.com/showpost.ph...44&postcount=1
