I'm reluctant to grab every new driver release that comes out since many have given me headaches, but I've read that this may be a desirable version to be running. Any experience good or bad with this version?

 

Thanks!

I been using the 332.21 without any problems. I have a EVGA GTX 670 4GB

Have you tried reducing your SGSS setting? One fellow here was claiming he was getting better AA with 2XSGSS then he did with 4XSGSS on his previous driver version! That would sure motivate me to move! :lol:

Well the sparklee pixies are gone with the 332.21 driver using 2x Sparse SS AND having 2x AA set in the fixer.

 

Still prefer 4x Sparse SS along with 8X CSAA.

Works well.

331.82 works fine, too - and yes - I do like 2x SGSS, as long as LOD bias is used to correct any blurring.

Great! Installing this evening. Thanks all!

Update: Probably just me but I upgraded to this driver and 5 minutes into my test flight I noticed an issue. Flying over the water of San Fransisco bay, I noticed a very funky (bad) swirling pattern on the water's surface texture. Almost like Z-fighting or a moiré pattern. Did not like it! They've definitely made changes to the SGSS algorithm - apparently mostly for the better as 2XSGSS was pretty darn good - but something isn't working with my water (default with DX10 fixer). I went back to my old reliable (318.20 IIRC) and all was well again. Hmmmm.... Oh well.

I am using 332.21 and its so smooth like i never have seen it before. Dont think is pure placebo B)  . I am using 4XSGSS and 4X in the DX10 fixer. Should i try 8XCSAA in the Fixer ? Whats the benefit ?

 

Thanks

Anyone else seeing any benefit?

I reformatted last weekend and I am using 332.21 with 8XSGSS/-1.5LOD and 16XCSAA in Fixer with no issue on 780GTX.   

Hi Jordan, I have the same computer specs as you except for the processor, which is a 3570k. I just got the same EVGA 780GTX card you have and I've been unable to get better than 10fps on the ground at FSDT KJFK v2 using the PMDG 777. AI Traffic is at 30%. Can you please share your inspector and fsx.cfg settings? Thanks!

Works fine without any issues on my 690GTX (8XSGSS/-1.0LOD).

so what does 8xCSAA do vs 4X ? in the NI and Fixer ? (performance)

I dont use anything later than 327.23, because vsync is broken with limited FPS.
