    GEFORCE R300 DRIVER 301.24 BETA's

    Have not tried them yet, but they seem to have all the new features of the 600 series drivers.

    Win7 64bit download and info.

    Looks fancy. The previous 300 set didn't seem to be compatible with my 580 for some reason so I didn't get them, still on 296.whatever they were. Downloading these now. Wanna try out that FXAA stuff too.

    Doesn't look like there is anything performance wise for the 680?

    K tried them out and they seem to be more or less fine, saw a little bit of performance increase in world of tanks actually(like 4-5fps, but could be placebo even though there is an fps counter in the game)

    FXAA is like....no go though for that game at least. Makes the text really really muddy. Still readable mostly but....don't like, and the performance gain was negligible.

    With FXAA enabled under control panel what is the hotkey to disable/enable it on the fly?

    I am using the 301.25 betas with my 680 and 580 and they are super stable were I had some slight issues with the 301.24's on the 680. Have not noticed any real world increases on the 580 but FXAA is cool and has virtually no penalty performance wise.

    If I get time this weekend I will test this with my 470 to see if there is a performance hit. (if FXAA works with 4xx series that is)

    It does. On my 470 the performance hit was negligible, the quality of the AA is also improving with each iteration, there is virtually zero blurring now and the edge AA is easily on a par with 4xAA, but for far less performance cost.

    I have these installed and now get driver crash at clocks that worked on the 301.10 driver.

    Not tried the 301.24 yet.

    Anyone else try them?
