No diff from the 09's for me, Crysis runs the same, 06 was about same, but then again Crysis is probs still the same as these drivers are only to improve SLi in it when the patch comes out, so single cards wont be affected i guess.

They probably took the 09's and just slapped the Crysis SLi boost in em, then renamed em 13's.

Was wondering why I could not find it on Nvidia site, but then noticed the files on Guru3D.

So might not be an indication that the patch is near ready yet. NVidia could easily just hold off on releasing these for weeks yet.

Will wait and see what other people get before I install them..

They are on NV site, just hidden away a bit. Here's direct download links from the UK server (should max out your connection):

Tried this driver on my 2x8800GTX set up and it's started crashing Crysis, Must only work in conjunction with the 1st Crysis patch.

Rolled back my drivers and the issue was gone.

Any news on this patch arrival for crysis?, useless trying these drivers otherwise.

 

[LoadsaMoney]

Still no patch yet, so these drivers are a waste, you may as well keep the 09's on till it appears seen as these are just the 09's, but with that SLi Crysis boost added, but whats the point of it if the patch is needed, but its not out.

Also these are only worth putting on if you have SLi, no point for single cards as you don't need the SLi Crysis boost, no point un-installing the 09's and sticking em back on again.

im noticing a 5fps differance in 1680x1050, with high/very high settings, areas where i was getting 23 are now on 29.

Nvidia released them as at the joint interview with Nvidia and the CEO from Crysis, he said 10-14 days (AFAIR) for the 1st Crysis Patch.

Now you would need go and find the date of the interview and count the days, but its well past the 10-14 days.

i think the interview was the 15th of november, they said a patch would be out in 7-14 days, but after like 15-16 days they said theres no fixed date on the patch release
