More bencies plz? DMC, Crysis ect?

 

Ok, first lost planet colonies :

180.43

Scene 1 : 37.5
scene 2 : 67.6

1440x900, dx 10, vista, 8800 gts2

180.48

Scene 1 : 38.2
Scene 2 : 67

So where are the 80% boost ? Answer : in my ass.


But with DMC there is a gain :

180.43 :



180.48 :



Forgot to desativate vsync.

 

I installed the drivers and they run perfectly. My 88GTX is significantly older than yours; driver support for dual-gpu cards will never be perfect.
Enjoy your new ATi card.

 

Any chance you could enlighten as to "the reason"?

If not, then I would call that "random speculation without research". aka blind posting. I might even use the word "guess" if I was in a lazy mood...

Also I was happy before you told me to be, well, happy. Now that happiness is gone.

Thanks.

 

Aside from driver level fan control not working, greyed out scaling options have kept me away from 180.x. Has that been fixed?

(Vista x64 by the way)

 

ok guys stop bitching please and keep to the subject ...knivestv the reason is nvidia don't care about customers

 

Does anyone know how to enable clone mode display on dual monitors with these?

Any help or enlightenment would much appreciated

 

black screen bug in bf2142??????

 

this is got to be a joke lol, no seriously i didnt see any boost what so ever, i used tweakforce xg180.42 before and got better performance, i've tested so far DMC4 bench and X3TC...

this is with 180.42


and 180.48


in X3 i got 2 fps less ( lowest fps stayed the same as with 180.42 trough all 4 tests)... common bigbang2 lolz im not impressed...and where is open GL 3 :3eyes:

Weird enough CoD5:WaW crashes again when using sli. (like all other drivers except 44's)

So gonna stay with dox's 180.44 at the moment, the only driver able (for me) to play CoD:WaW in sli-mode.

 

I will make u a question guys:

From 50 FPS to 200 (or more) FPS, can we see any differences when we play any game?

 

it feels way smoother (especially in first person shooters), and for the quake-engine fanatics (quake, doom, CoD, MoH, rtcw, etc..) high stable fps like 125 or 333 are important.

 

Need to save and upgrade dude It SAYS 8800 and UP to use these drivers with the Phyx drivers and plus glad I heard that the Mirror's Edge game will have Phyx support when I get it I'm gonna play ME at Max Settings

 

I'm asking that because when I played Bioshock I enabled VSYNC on Nvidia control Panel and was always on 60 FPS, never moved from there.

When i disable it it was always over the 100 FPS, and i didn't notice any difference..

Now playing World in Conflict there a huge difference playing from 1600x1080 (40FPS max) to 1280x960 (always over 60 FPS). Here is when we have to blame Nvidia, I think.

 

Hi everyone (and forgive my poor english .. I'm french),
I am about to update my nvidia driver to these 180.48 and wondering if there was a way to keep all the settings of the control panel and most of all the "programs settings", made specifically for my different games.
Because when I uninstall my old driver (and use driver cleaner ... or not actually), everything is deleted and I have to do it all again !
I'd really appreciate your help !!!
