wook Posted October 20, 2008 Report Share Posted October 20, 2008 7.15.11.8020 8/10/2008 (best tester) Official version release date: End of October Firstly looks like some minor changes to the control panel. As you can see PhysX has been added to the SLi setting tab. Its now able to be disabled or enabled here, and no longer in the OS control panel. Also added a change for 'SLi Focus'. Over all This driver is made for SLI, and there seems to be a few bugs that need working out before its released.. Preliminary testing showed this drivers weakness: SLi is still not working 100%. Interesting as this driver is specifically for SLi... Well, I for one am looking forward to the official/ working release of this driver. SLi users finally have something to look forward to, its just a matter of getting all games to support SLi as well. Results: As compared to our own modified drivers... Preliminary testing: Full driver testing and comparison available here: http://forums.laptopvideo2go.com/index....5&hl=8700gt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dox Posted October 21, 2008 Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 The only thing I'm really looking forward to is OpenGL 3.0 support as well as (I doubt it) imrovements to performance and image quality. I hate to say it but ati with cat 8.1 have had crosfire on mulitple displays :| Something nvidia should have done a long time ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Claw Posted October 21, 2008 Report Share Posted October 21, 2008 Correct me if i am wrong here. Looks like its added an option for image settings: Can let 3D application decide, use advanced settings, or your own preferences. This was there before :) yea, where do you get these at?? id like to try em out :) http://forums.laptopvideo2go.com/index....showtopic=21250 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
