Geforce 180.84 Beta Drivers

nice driver!! better fps on Crysis,Grid,GTA4,Far Cry 2 and Dirt!! i test every this game 1hour and no problems

 

This is interestinge, if I only find a way to use it...

 

You could try Badaboom (http://www.badaboomit.com) but now that i read that page we probably have to wait for the new version.
Upcoming release of Badaboom™ Media Converter version 1.1
awesome new features that will be available to the public in mid-December

 

thats what tested on my older comp...(AMD X2 4200 @ 2.6ghz + gskill 2GB DDR + 8800GT 512MB)

Not better for you one is High other test is Highest.

You have Geforce 180.48 on High, and Geforce 180.84 on Highest.

Thats not a good bench.

 

Yes buy a new GFX card or a new laptop.

 

Good to hear that.

Downloding now...

 

9800gx2

gta recognize only 50% memory on graphics card so i cant set higest quality.

 

if you have a dual gpu, you do not have double VRAM.

 

Heres a little spoiler



It's a 32bit directshow filter, written in c++ and looks like it uses CUDA API for low level GPU functions. From first looks its a GPU accelerated AVC (h264) encoding filter.

I haven't quite yet worked out how to call the main function to start it as. It appears to register successfully but I haven't yet figured out how to expose the filter's guid inside Graphedit or any other directshow filter guid browser.

Once I figure this part out, I'll throw some screenshots up and instructions once I have it partly working.

 

Looks like you read page 1 and skipped page 2.

Yeah, I tried registering is manually but it doesn't show up anywhere. I came in to same conclusion after checking the file with hex editor.

 

Works good for me so far.. BF2 and Crysis Warhead look nice

Vista32bit too.. not going to test this on my Xp machine

I'm running a Vantage run now

 

If you can figure out the function name responsible for launching the encoder config window, it should run.

The format to execute dll/ax is
rundll32.exe "x:\path\to\nvblah.ax" <function_name>

no < > of course.

I've just formatted comp recently so haven't got much in terms of debuggers, and all that fun stuff installed yet. I'm installing a few more things now. If i get anywhere i'll add more.

Only 1fps so not much change here.

Other than that the drivers are working fine, i have yet to run into any problems.

 

well tested with Vantage and I gained another 40+ points yay

But so far no issues with anything... I must also say that I'm running pretty much a new install of Vista32bit with NO other software beyond games,Vantage and driver cleaner pro installed.

I keep my gaming rig lean and mean... this should also tell those that have issues that its most likely something else and not the driver causing the problem cause thats how Nvidia tests...on a fresh OS all updates installed and drivers..thats pretty much it.

 

Yeah, I tried this one too. Tested config, NvEnc etc. and other possible candidates for that but so far no luck. I try to find out what it will be, if I find something I will post it here aswell.

 

I guess we all have to buy quad core processors just to get more than 30 FPS.

Roughly 4fps gain, saaawweeeettt!

 

Well, you see this is the "Don't waste money on a quad, buy an E8600 for a 10er less" strategy coming back to bite people on the ass. Quad-core utilising games have been on the horizon for long enough.
