K2mil Posted April 7, 2014 Posted April 7, 2014 Nvidia today released their new 337.50 Beta driver. The drivers enhance DirectX in such a manner that they free up CPU overhead Source This sounds like good news for DCS World INTEL CORE I7 6700K ASUS ROG MAXIMUS VIII HERO ASUS ROG GTX1080Ti Strix OC 16GB @ 4100 MHz |CORSAIR Intel 730 SSD 240GB Corsair 850 W Modular PSU Corsair Obsidian 650d Logitech X-56 HOTAS ,Saitek X-65F HOTAS, Pro Ruder Pedals, Pro Flight Instrument Panel NP TrackIr 5 Pro Windows 10 PRO

hitman Posted April 7, 2014 Posted April 7, 2014 Why would video drivers improve network code? Dont understand that logic...
K2mil Posted April 8, 2014 Author Posted April 8, 2014 It seams like these drivers have the best results in directX 11. Can someone from ED comment did they improve FPS in EDGE regardless of engine progress ?

svedan Posted April 8, 2014 Posted April 8, 2014 (edited) For the last year or so I've run performance benchmarks using fraps within DCS every time Nvidia has released a new driver. It has never shown any remarkable difference when I've installed new drivers, this time was no exception. Im using a track file to record the fps so the margin of error is very small, like +- 0.25 fps Edit: 335.23 WHQL driver average result on 3 tests: 65.2 fps 337.50 Beta driver average result on 3 tests: 64.4 fps Edited April 8, 2014 by svedan 1
71st_Mastiff Posted April 8, 2014 Posted April 8, 2014 removing shader control from the CPU alone is worth it. :thumbup: "any failure you meet, is never a defeat; merely a set up for a greater come back", W Forbes.

blackbelter Posted April 9, 2014 Posted April 9, 2014 As far as I've seen, 337.50b does smoothen the view in the new 6dof Su-33 cockpit, by quite a large margin as compared to 335.23. Way to go Nvidia!
K2mil Posted April 9, 2014 Author Posted April 9, 2014 Glad to see improvement haven't tested my setup yet. It does not happen everyday when a company releases a software/driver that improves performance even on older hardware kudos for nvidia. Still would like to hear what edge testers have to say INTEL CORE I7 6700K ASUS ROG MAXIMUS VIII HERO ASUS ROG GTX1080Ti Strix OC 16GB @ 4100 MHz |CORSAIR Intel 730 SSD 240GB Corsair 850 W Modular PSU Corsair Obsidian 650d Logitech X-56 HOTAS ,Saitek X-65F HOTAS, Pro Ruder Pedals, Pro Flight Instrument Panel NP TrackIr 5 Pro Windows 10 PRO
howie87 Posted April 9, 2014 Posted April 9, 2014 I will try when I get home. The latest 'stable' drivers for my GTX 770 cause a load of blue and red artifacting in X-Plane anyway so I want to get shot of them ASAP.

hitman Posted April 10, 2014 Posted April 10, 2014 Well thats probably not fair, it was just a single aircraft. Had fraps running in the background too. Just a baseline, but its also pretty good considering its usually around 30 in online servers.
msalama Posted April 10, 2014 Posted April 10, 2014 A slick beta this driver! Runs stable and smooth for me. I don't know if the absolute maximum f/s is higher now though because I've got my FPS capped at 33, but I'm gonna test that later as well... The DCS Mi-8MTV2. The best aviational BBW experience you could ever dream of.
msalama Posted April 10, 2014 Posted April 10, 2014 OK, had my FPS fluctuating between 45-166 in a fairly busy mission, but the sim really isn't usable for me with these settings - getting far too much screen tearing and irregular stuttering and I just can't have that. So back to the lowish f/s cap I go... The DCS Mi-8MTV2. The best aviational BBW experience you could ever dream of.

diveplane Posted April 10, 2014 Posted April 10, 2014 good results here with older 335.23 drivers. https://www.youtube.com/user/diveplane11 DCS Audio Modding.
hitman Posted April 10, 2014 Posted April 10, 2014 I didnt notice any difference with multi screens and softth. I went back to 314.22 Why are you using SoftTH? Use Nvidia Surround, your video card supports more than 3 monitors.

_Dredd Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 Why are you using SoftTH? Use Nvidia Surround, your video card supports more than 3 monitors. Cause I run monitors in PLP configuration. NVSurround cant do that.
