Hi

Since when have the drivers had different core/shader/memory clocks for the GTX 260 in what I assume is 2D/3D mode? Only just noticed this when trying to run Furmark, finding it would not run, downloading the new version and then booting up RivaTuner and panicking somewhat when I saw the clock speeds!

Only recently updated to 180.48, been on a far earlier version prior to this.

Thanks.
 
From doing a bit of digging.... It would appear that you are both right and wrong.

I found this comment on a number of forums (including Nvidia's own).

"ForceWare 167.xx and 169.xx drivers families support. Please take a note that 2D/3D performance levels switching is broken currently in these drivers".

So it looks like this feature must have been broken in the drivers that I used when I first built the machine. I thought it strange that I would have missed this with all the stability testing etc. that I did.

Thanks for the reply though.
