Re:XG v67.65 Drivers... - 2005/01/12 19:28
Thanks for the great feedback! Let us know if you find any problems.
Here is some more info I snatched from Valance Studios....
There are 5 profiles as he says. There are some IQ tweaks and some Performance tweaks in all of them but the Benching Sets are weighted towards speed, the Quaity sets are the regular Xtreme G but with a few little things I found, and HiQual is what it says.
One of the big changes came from finding an oversight on our previous sets. So FX cards may see an even bigger Performance increase.
We started with our older tweaks, and a LapTopVideo2Go (Pieter) inf as a baseline, and tweaked the hell out of it with Unwinder's RivaTuner, PowerStrip, NVIDIA Control Panel, Rewt's NVTweak, and a million executions of RegEdit, AM3, VST, FarCry, and HL2. You may note that I have no OpenGL games, that's one of the reasons we released the beta inf's.
So basically, most but not all, of what we did this time is to preset Quality/Performance settings. Many of you will say "I can do that myself". Well, point 1 - now some of you won't have to do it now at all and many wouldn't have a clue anyway, point 2 - there is still a balancing act in play that isn't easy to achieve, point 3 - these drivers kick ass!
If any of you get stutters in HiQual drop your ansio to 4 and try that. Let us know of any problems, or improvements in settings that you prefer. And if there is a big call for it, we'll change those settings.
Look in the forums because I came across a technique to help game stutters that can't reasonably be added to our tweaks.
