Forceware 171.16 is here

[perox]

My Crysis score is up from 47.010fps on the 169.28's to 48.33fps on these.

I'd say that a pretty decent improvement.

What settings do you use to get such a high score?

 

[perox]

I'm using the settings from the Crysis bench thread, 1280x1024, all high, no AA.

Yeah seems accurate to me, I get 30 on the benchy with a duo @ 2.66, 4x AA and 16X AF, with a stock GTS.

 

[Greenboi]

Are those scores on vista?

 

[snowdog]

Directed @ me ?

Xp...

Bugger! BSOD on these back to the 163.75's I go

I've stopped hoping that any of these new drivers they keep firing out the door will give me any noticable fs increase now :/

 

[Gashman]

still no vsta x64? come NVIDIA, do it already!

According to NVNEWS, these are the exact same drivers used in that vr-zone preview and are incomplete, and can cause issues in various titles, also there is missing support for certain features.

One feature i guess which is missing, the fan control.

wish they would fix the fan at 100% prob every time i boot my system ive got to go into rivatuner and set it to auto then the fan goes to go riva wont seem to save the setting unless any1 knows how to get it to save

 

[perox]

My fan starts at 100% but I can set it to what I like in the NV control panel.

What settings do you use to get such a high score?

quoted fps sounds about right, I can get 45 with an E4300 and a GT in XP.

Using XP my score went from 44'ish to 48'ish not bad for a driver improvement.
I was using 168.13 before that. because it was stable. this one seems fine.
