Have to use Getright to download these.... getting 120kb now which is better than 20 :bang:

Some Crysis benchmarks coming soon....

 

The original drivers have a new version of PhysX that is installed as part of the driver package. I think it is worth getting the original driver version to get this new physx update. 177.83 runs very well on XPx86 in all games I have tested so far.
Not that it matters much but the 3DMark 06 score 12445 is the highest I've got with current setup running these drivers. I've got a bunch of stuff running in the background and I haven't really pushed the graphics card to see what it can do, so I'm reasonably happy with that score. Anyway I'll install Company of Heroes now and a few other games and post some real benchmarks.

 

Haha you posted your benchies as I was writing my post....

Well I still post mine anyway

 

eh? does GRID make use of PhysX at all?

 

someone please help

i am using 177.83 plus lastest included PhyX Driver

In GRID the Flags are not moving in the Race Results Screen...are they meant to move on that screen?

I have the GeForce Phy Secleted in the PhyX software...

 

yeah the flags but there not moving for me

 

Just tested grid and flags are moving and I see more particles when crashing. Great !

 

uh, the flags already moving in my case and i havent installed any PhsyX driver/new geforce driver yet -_-

why are my flags not moving on grid i have lastest patch

 

is the "cloth option" enabled in the graphics? i have mine enabled, so the flags are moving/swaying:

or is it supposed to sway differently?

 

Thats what I was going to say, the flags were always moving. GRID is not a physx supported game. If your flags are not moving, then its a bug of some sort that has nothing to do with physx.

 

lol i thiugh the Country flags moved

also on the Catwalk Test what FPS did u get with 177.83

with my Clock Speeds at 675/900/1650

i get 177.79 max 39FPS with 177.83 i get Max 31FPS.....anyone else get lower

 

srol ye u can notice it moves if u got 250 km/h + next to them LOL

 

Just checked and you are right.

 

Does anyone have modded inf for 9300m g and vista 32bit?

 

Tried Graw2 which has 3 physx options, normal, high and extreme. Only normal would work, high crashes the game.

 

So Devil May Cry 4 keeps getting slower and slower with every new driver release?

 

yes appears that way, C16xQ AA mode has dropped a little fps but visual quality is where it should be now, gain offsets the loss. Others have simply all gotten worse with each new driver. 177.66 had the most solid overall performance for all AA modes and game in general.

I play with C8xQ, as C16xQ does cause slight lag in game play on the harder difficulties with lots of monsters on the screen same time. C8xQ looks ridiculously better than C16x, as the graphics show much more definition and detail. C16xQ looks a little better than 8xQ, it is noticable but since Nvidia unoptimized DMC4 it's not exactly playable without SLI at 1920x1200 or greater anymore.
