Rel 80 Fixes

jAkUp · 09-16-05, 07:29 PM

What happened to the dual CPU enhancements???

TV-out / HDTV-out support for even higher resolution gaming support
Mix and match vendors - for example, pairing an SLI supported graphics card from MSI with one from BFG or XFX
Mix and match framebuffers (via Coolbits) - pairing a 128MB graphics card with a 256MB graphics card
Ability to enable vsync for all Direct3D and OpenGL games
Dynamically enable/disable SLI - rebooting is eliminated!
Primary Display Switching
Auto Display Detection
Linux Support

I guess that just a short list, I am sure Release 80 has a very long list of new features and fixes included dual core support.

Where did you find that list of fixes?

On this fine and dandy homepage of the 1337st site on teh net!

Oh

Next time I will revisit Nvnews headlines, I alway get directly to Nvnews forum and check for any new topics in many windows.

you've forgot to add that SLI optimized games will increase to around 150!!

WOW! Man, nVidia is really on the ball with the drivers! They haven't got a single issue on the other fronts and now they have all this time to make updates to SLI configs that most people don't have...

Er...

Wait a tick!

They haven't fixed a lot of the problems (VMR sync, stuttering between THEIR motherboards and THEIR video cards, video decode glitches) and they're going ahead with adding the new features that few actually have the need for.

YAY! Go nVidia, go! Mixed priorities is fun!

Hmmmm, I wonder if ATI is doing anything interesting on the video decode because that's probably the only way we're going to eventually have nVidia correct the VMR/MCE issues.

And before you ask, want more information on the MCE issues? Go to HTPC forums like AVSforum or HTPCnews and ask about the 6600. It *should* be the best card for that purpose, but the decoding bugs keep it second-rate. It has great quality, jerky playback.

Its enough to make one swear off nVidia. If they don't hurry up and fix this.

I only mentioned SLI enhancements. NVIDIA will provide us with a detailed briefing on the Rel 80 drivers in the near future.
