I've already settled with the 84.26. They seem to be the best right now.
Someone said to disable the self shadows in Oblivion and that fixed the problem pretty much. Thanks. |

Yeah, self-shadowing needs some patching by nVidia before it works properly.
I'm still using 84.25, is there a significant diff between the .26?
You should take a read from this TweakGuide, it'll probably help you kick up a few FPS.
About the WoW Funeral news post..
Woah, that kind of shizzle is the point why MMORPG's exist, all that stuff is for real life, not for in-game, and I'd hardly call WoW a safe enough game for serious community related events to take place.
The video is funny though, shame it is in such low-resolution. |

@devilhood
No, but I found for 'me' that certain games performed better with 84.26. Until I checked last night after reading that article, I realized I was running with 84.26.. I started with 84.30. I can't recall without seeing my temp folder how many I tested.. I think I tested as far back as 84.20..
Not sure if the Oblivion comment was directed to me, but Oblivion works shockingly well for me. It's really puzzling me how others aren't getting the same fps as I am.. The closest I've seen so far is Extreme Tech..Outside I get an average of 54fps, inside I am getting around 67 and more. My 3DMark05 score is just over 7000 and I haven't tweaked my new install of Windows yet... |
