    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.




    My Rig can do EpicFLOPs, Can yours?
    Once this baby hits 88 TeraFLOPs, You're going to see some serious $@#%....

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

    I only have a single 8800GTS 320. You can turn off GPU Phsyx acceleration in the drivers right?

    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.

    I was dinking around with other benchmarks, and noticed 2D graphics test in Performance Mark was significantly improved over previous driver versions, like by 500% or more. I know 2D performance isn't much nowdays, but it's nice to see them finally stop neglecting GUI and 2D game performance. Performace on crystalmark is a little bit better too, but nothing like performance mark's gains.

    I refuse to participate in any debate with creationists because doing so would give them the "oxygen of respectability" that they want.
    Creationists don't mind being beaten in an argument. What matters to them is that I give them recognition by bothering to argue with them in public.

    STALKER Clear Sky is not out yet
    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).
