Crashed the Physix part of Vantage for me (Vista 64, 8800 GTX). FSX crashed once, Crysis runs fine (with 177.79 it was the other way around).
All over the performance is slightly improved and i believe i can see a minimal better picture quality.
STALKER Clear Sky runs at 25 FPS at 1920x1080 on my GTX 280, on high settings in DX10. I wonder if this is normal.

That game is looking really good. Seems normal if the graphics look that nice. Is AA on?Quote:

OS that i used was xp professional sp3..
Well just put these on. Best drivers for me yet. GOW runs the best out of any driver (and i've tried many), Crysis runs the same and IQ is great in general. TF2 has the best IQ yet (honestly check it out if you play the game) and as it's my main game these are def staying on. Vista 32, 8800GTX.
Now if the rumours are right with bigbang 2 media transcoding on my GPU, i won't even need to upgrade my trusty 4800+ for a wee while longer.
aaaa russian pirate versionQuote:

Performace on crystalmark is a little bit better too, but nothing like performance mark's gains.
Ran this on my nephews computer. I put a 7600gs in there for him. Runs Cod4 about 20% faster.
Thanks for posting this.
how would I force my Dell XPS M1530 to accept these drivers?
Any idea how these would fare on an 8800GT?
They work great on the 8800gt...load em up.Quote:

Anyway I am still loving these drivers, lower temps than 177.41, fans return back to 40% after intense gaming and also nice performance increases across the board. Very good. I wonder what treats the "Big Bang" drivers have in store for us (hopefully more performance tweaks).
