    NV and H.264 acceleration ?

    hi, Thanks for the file. I'll try that next time in on a NV based system. I've my ATI back in and H.264 working flawlessly (in all my applications) for now :)

    NV and H.264 acceleration ?

    Yup, got all of that and ticked the box. Even read a massive pdf from NV on how to enable it and how to use it etc. Still no joy.

    NV and H.264 acceleration ?

    I tried this on my 7800 GTX (go) with 84.12 and the Purevideo and Cyberlink codecs... couldnt see any differences in performance regardless of what software/clip/configs i used which sounds like the same results as Hanners. I guess there is a little way to go on the NV side of things (my X1k...

    G70 Vs X1800 Efficiency

    Thanks Komb, Pretty much summed up a lot of what i was going to post. Basically this whole article came from me seeing a few posts (quite poss on this site) wondering about clock for clock performance as well as some conversations i'd had with the DH owner. I was interested to see what...

    App Detection

    Ah yes, i remember it well. One case in particular sticks out in my memory. After our reference 5700 Ultra review i received a less than calm call from NV UK's new PR bod requesting that i re-write my conclusion to be more favourable to them and demanding that i dont use TRAOD or Shadermark 2 in...

    X600/300 can support SM2.0B and R3x0 cant?

    *eats humble pie* I checked with ATI again and they have confirmed that X6 and X3 do not support 2.0b after all. They apologise and i apologise for the incorrect info. *continues eating*

    X600/300 can support SM2.0B and R3x0 cant?

    The leaked 4.8's dont have the full SM2.0b/instancing support that the press drivers do afaik. I'm sure i saw it mentioned on some other forum that the press release drivers were the first 4.8 build to add in this functionality. As for our (DH) comment that the X3 and X6 support 2.0b, i had...

    Nvidia Instancing demo on x800

    It is a bit of a worst case scenario (rather than badly coded), yes. Thats kind of the point though, test the worst case scenario you can to see what the real benefits can be. On a slightly different note, Tommti removed all the CPU limiting code the new stats are: 6800GT @ Ultra... 3.4fps...

    More Far Cry confusion? (nv45 anand's review)

    The patch sent to the press by nvidia had several issues on the Radeon, a score drop doesnt surprise me. You can see the radeon issues in detail here : http://www.driverheaven.net/articles/farcrypatch/

    ATI forgets Europe?

    A few UK online stores had XFX 6800GT's and U in stock yesterday/last few days. They sold out fast though and are back to pre-order.

    If you're interested?

    Yeah, its a tough call...choose one way and 50% of people get annoyed at you...choose the other option and the oposite 50% get annoyed at you. Overall it was a good read though.

    If you're interested?

    ooohhhh, controversial... "Trilinear Optimisations are left at the default "ON" position unless stated otherwise. (This setting can only be changed using NV4x GPUs). In light of the recent ATi revelations this seemed fairest."
