Hey guys just curious about the 7.11's that should be with us hopefully by the end of the week/start of next? I dont know if anyone has any info etc but just curious to see if there is anything at all we can expect! Hoping this release set again shows some improvement in the 2900's!

Awaits some NVidia wisecracks!
 
Hopefully they will optimise a little for Crysis.
I was wondering if any of the HD 2900 Pro/XT have had any issues with running Crysis? (Catalyst™ 7.10 Display Driver for Windows XP).

I have a HD2900XT in a machine here and it works good however I have noticed some visual glitches when running the Crysis benchmark, a few shimmering textures and sometimes whole blocks of trees/vegitation turn red or blue lol.

Can't say I notice anything like that when actually playing the game although I did come upon a fence where the fence posts were disappearing and reappearing?

I almost suspected the card was faulty in some way but its runs sweeeet in every other game I played.

My first thought is possible the Catalyst™ drivers need more work?

Any feedback please?
 
7.10's glitch for me in XP and in this game only. I had to use 7.9's for Crysis but I've un-installed that now.

Seems like both Nvidia & ATI are having problems with the game then, either rushed drivers to make demo run correctly for a massively demanding game, or wrong programming or lack of communication from Crytek. No other game i know does this.
 
I hope thats a typo and you mean Catalyst™ 7.10 :)

Fixed now :o.

A 6 or an 8 would've been a typo so I've not got a scooby doo what I was doing lol.

Yeah I meant 7.10's. I've only had one problem since getting the 2900Pro and that was last week with Crysis.
 
Same glitches here :) I think one encouraging aspect of the crysis performance is that we havent had an "optimised" driver yet and the green camp have, albeit one where they cheat!

Hoping for big DX10 push in the next driver and a lot of optimisations, just wish I was a member of the beta team :(
