Enable scaling and sharpening by driver via Nvidia drivers (performance fix?)

[Neil79]

Original 'Scaling and Sharpening' with *EnableGR535"=dword:00000000*

Benchmark results follow:

511.23 scaling and sharpening by driver
EnableGR535=0 results in old control panel 'Scaling / Sharpening', no loss of framerate with native resolution and scaling enabled.

86,86,86 FPS Native Resolution, No Scaling, No Sharpen
85,86,86 FPS Native Resolution, Scaling, No Sharpen
101,100,101 FPS Scaled Resolution 85%, No Sharpen
100,100,100 FPS Scaled Resolution 85%, 50% Sharpen

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\nvlddmkm\FTS]
"EnableGR535"=dword:00000000

511.23 scaling and sharpening by driver (New Scaling / NIS, default EnableGR535=1)
results in loss of framerate with native resolution and scaling enabled. Poor scaled performance when compared to old scaling / old sharpening performance.

86,85,86 FPS Native Resolution, No Scaling, No Sharpen
82,82,81 FPS Native Resolution, Scaling, No Sharpen
91,91,91 FPS Scaled Resolution 85%, No Sharpen
90,90,91 FPS Scaled Resolution 85%, 50% Sharpen

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\nvlddmkm\FTS]
"EnableGR535"=dword:00000001

You didn't copy the entire post and left out important info. Says at the bottom "Nice workaround for Pascal and Maxwell owners so the old scaling and sharpening can be used in driver sets 496.76 and above."

So this will only work for Maxwell (900 series) and pascal (10 series) cards.
