beta 77.13 Drivers Dated 5/13/2005

Wow, in my many years here this is the first time Ive ever made it through 8 pages and not one major issue. A few neutral remarks but pretty much positive response from all, including us FX sucka's.

That says a lot about these drivers.

Dowloading now.

 

Cool, been waitng for something new.

 

Well my 5900xt still got some power left.
Theses Driver are Awesome.
Textures a Sharper, Smoother and a lil faster!

Gonna keep em

 

Installed and played

All is good my fellow FX users!

I havent done any benchmarks because I dont really understand the point. Temps have def gone down!!


Played so far,

Tribes2
Sid's Pirates
Painkiller
BFV and BF 1942
Homeworld 2 (cant believe that suckas still on my HD, lol)
UT 2004
HL2 with DX9 hack
and last but not least SIN, thats right SIN...

gave each a few mins play so take it for what its worth, I tried to blow up as much crap as one can with the ummmmm ...all weapons .....cheats..


May try to install some games I had issues with in the past just for kicks.

I played most at high settings no aa, with 3d sound on. Painkiller looked awesome

 

Anyone use these with EQ2 yet? If so, what are your impressions vs, say the 76.44 set?

TIA

DJB

 

woot! I broke 49k with these drivers.

 

I have tried them with Everquest II, not much of a performance gain I am afraid.

I hate the fact that SLi makes sod all difference with this game.

Does anyone know how to increase performance with SLi and EQ2?

I get a steady 30-35 fps with the Balanced setting, with some minor tweaks, the game just never runs that well and I have a pretty high end system....

 

its not your system is the game engine is crappy like swat 4 lol

 

I can only add to all the positive comments about these drivers, I played a marathon Call of Duty session tonight with them and they are just soooooooo smoooooooooth, can really notice the difference with the mouse on my 6800GT.

Much smoother gameplay than with previous 76.4x's I was running.

Alright guys, with these drivers i have managed to get new highs in benchies with my system.

clocked to 580/1135 i have managed to achieve:

54470 in am3 and;
3966 in 3dm05

off to test games. will be be later

 

My guess is that many of the lingering unexplained problems were all related to one strange low-level fix that happened this time around. Something that has been honestly unsolved for it looks like almost a year. Because whatever they fixed in this one go around, it seems to have squashed a whole lot of ancient and lingering frustrations.

I for one am very happy as I run a pair of nvidia adapters (Quadro FX 4000 AGP and GeForce FX 5500 PCI), driving from 3-4 monitors on a VIA chipset...so you can imagine the number of "weird things" I've had to deal with over the past six months, haha.

 

I'll give them a try when I'm back from work. currently using 76.45.
Always like now shiny toys

 

These drivers didnt work with WoW for me, the login screen ran at approx 1 frame every 2 seconds making it impossible to do anything with. i.e. login

 

Sorry I never overclock my fsb or and cpu speed. ok, seems many of you like this drivers, i will give it a try for my guild war.

 

@ bilston

For me these drivers work just fine in WoW !

Yesterday 10 hours in Molten Core and not a single issue, ...

I really start to like this driver set, nice Performance, great stability and awsome IQ !

I'm keeping them till Logitech gives us some x64 Software and then I'll swap to Win x64

 

Getting IRQ_no_less_or_equal in Far Cry with these drivers and massive slowdowns at places. Although I'm not completely sure it's because of these drivers.
Switching back to 76.44

 

These are very good. I went from xg76.50HD to these, and all is good. about 500more pts. in aquamark, and everything just seems to be smoother and more stable with better IQ. I like 'em............................... good luck

 

So... wheres my XG version

 

Great drivers for SLI.
WoW looks and plays better then ever. ROME world map doesnt lag.

BUT, it seems to have broken shader effects in source - just run the CS Stress Test or the Aztek map. The reflective surfaces in the ground appear like white plastic wrap and glow in the dark. There also seems to be missing or extremely light self shadowing on character models.

I think im going back to 71.89 to ensure nothing broken when the godly Battlefield 2 comes out. in 2 weeks (YES!!! **** YES!!)

 

Does this driver support OpenGL 2.0?
