NVIDIA Driver Optimizations
In the main testing in this review, you’ll remember we had both the Trilinear and Anisotropic Filtering optimization in the NVIDIA driver control panel turned OFF.
We also wanted to see how much of a difference these optimizations made in performance on the eVGA e-GeForce 6800 GT, so we enabled them to run a few benchmarks that you can see below.
Our testing shows there to be a small increase in gaming performance with these optimizations enabled. In Unreal Tournament 2004, we see a 2-3 FPS gain in all the categories though it still does not really make the 16×12 resolution playable with 4xAA and 8xAF turned on. In BF:V the maximum FPS sees a nice gain of 14 frames but again the average is just about 3 FPS faster with the optimizations. Far Cry sees the least improvement with the optimizations, with not even 2 FPS gained on the average framerate.
We turned these off initially in order to get the very best image quality out of the NVIDIA cards we could, but because these optimizations are enabled by default in the new driver releases, we thought showing you how they affect performance was pertinent. How they affect image quality is still up in the air as most of the time the optimizations are not really noticeable, though there have been a very limited number of instances where they have been.
The ensemble drama about
The ensemble drama about young adults growing up in Beverly Hills is a blend of romantic drama and subject matter that crosses all cultural boundaries. The storyline has followed the Walsh family as they moved from a middle-class Midwestern neighborhood to wealthy and glamorous Beverly Hills, maturing from high school to college students, facing new challenges as they continue to grow and discover more about themselves and their personal ambitions. As their worlds evolve, old friendships will be tested as new relationships develop, but no matter how complicated their worlds become, they will always share in their strengths and experiences.
