ok, no new features as far as I ca see and games run the same as 4109 did, even with fxfsaa and fxAF in Vice City looks and runs the same, without fsaa and af im still getting average 80FPS and other games are rthe same, MOH:AA still around 150fps.

Lost a few hundred on marks though!

Well, mrk, thank you for the report.
Do they seem stable?

#7 mrk on 18 Jun 2003 - 12:00

didn't cause any probs in 3dmark at all and games seemed stable as every other driver too, overclocking my card from 250/513 to 305/605 was also stable.

I would say if you are currently using a 4x.xx version detonator then don't really bother upgrading unless you have a GFFX card, just wait for the Detonator version 5 to come out which should be soon, new generation and new jump just like 2 to 3 and 3 to 4

I WISH THEY'D FIX THE goddamn motherf%$king MACROMEDIA thing on older cards like my Geforce 3 TI 200

Yes I know it's the cards Bios and they need to make a new one, but they SHOULD it's because of the more stringent Macromedia policies that makes the "Problem with your TV out" happen in all software dvd players, talk about giving your consumers the shaft eh? YES I've tried TV Tool with Macrovision "off" checked and that doesn't work.

#11.1 pHuzi0n on 19 Jun 2003 - 00:56

I wish you'd fix the god damn problem with your brain. Macromedia is a company that's based about 2 miles from my home; Macrovision is the stupid technology that keeps you from pirating movies/tv. Nvidia has already stated that Macrovison won't EVER be removed from their drivers from now on. If you want to get rid of it, use some of those really old drivers like the ones that came with your card.

#11.2 taylor510 on 19 Jun 2003 - 21:06

that really blows, all the more reason to go ATI i guess...

#12 Wazz on 18 Jun 2003 - 18:28

Will it work with 2003 Server, I am having loads of problems with the latest version from Nvidia..

Pretty nice, +500 3DMARKS vs. 44.03 on my FX 5600
