I stopped bothering about new drivers. Since a few years nothing has changed whatsoever...

OK after testing a lot (including Crysis 2) it's a keeper for me, got rid of all stutterings I had in Crysis 2 and I can use FSX AI to the max without to much decreased perf. in DX10...I'll make a small vid. later.

Thanks Alain for being the "Guinea Pig". :biggrin:

My performance has been improved with 313.95 driver, i am 100% positive about that. I have some saved fsx scenarios with bad weather and NGX and i have better fps and smoothnest compared to 310.90. Interesting thing that textures are loading faster and i don't have any artifacts or bluries when i switch beetwen views

Here too, performance increase, no placebo on my part either, nothing magic but noticable, again in DX10 as I don't ever use DX9.

Yes, 313.96. I didn't saw that in title.

 

P.S. I use DX9. Tested with fs9 too - it's excelent driver!

I'm also seeing a performance increase with 313.95. I downloaded it yesterday morning. Now I see beta 313.96 is out today. Hmmmmmm do I wanna mess up this little uptick in fps??? I don't recall ever getting a noticeable performance increase over the last several driver updates, but this 313.95 seems have done something good. I launched a couple different planes in heavy OPUS cloud cover for a little testing last night and just wrapped up a short island hop using live weather which was predominantly cloudy...once again, smoother than before. Like others, textures also seem to load a tad quicker.

 

And since FSX is such an "old timer", here I thought all these driver updates for the new 2013 whiz bang games wouldn't affect FSX, but this one has :clapping:

Great news guys - thanks.

313.96 replaced 313.95 with a fix for some problems with installations (international), nothing more, same exact thing, if you have installed 313.95 no need to install 313.96.

[pinlifter 502]

Thanks Alain. I might be hesitant to download a future update since this one (313.95) has had a noticeable affect. Hopefully several others will chime in here as I'm curious to see the results.

Bummer I just installed 310.90. Thanks for the update.

Seems to be just nice as usual... No increase or decrease for me.

[jjjallen 37]

Not sure yet but no nonsense so far.
