Thanks for the heads up, been waiting for that

Neat, nice easy way to remember what driver you're on.

Nymins · 4 Oct 2007 at 19:28

Nice program, but doesn't too well with the Nvidia drivers. Doesn't show some info. For me anyway.

wont install on xp or vista for me

Gonzo0 · 4 Oct 2007 at 19:33

Im missing:
texture fillrate
Bus width
Bandwidth

muon · 4 Oct 2007 at 19:35

Yeh loads of problem as far as missing information goes. But it should run on both XP and Vista fine?

Darg · 4 Oct 2007 at 19:35

Nice. Works okay for me apart from the known ATi bug.

It's a standalone program, not an installer. Works fine for me on Vista x64 although its output is a bit "odd" considering I'm using ATI Crossfire:

Bit of a shame he's been messing about doing this when ATITool beta still isn't packaged with a signed certificate so us Vista x64 users don't have to keep hitting F8 every reboot to use it.

He's had the signing certificate for a few weeks now, and has already signed Rivatuners for them.

Can't really complain though, it's free...

Doesn't seem to like my Go5650

Pretty neat program

Thanks for telling..

jaykay · 4 Oct 2007 at 20:21

Cool this program shows how really poor my graphics card is.
