169.13 Crysis SLI Driver!

**SirBaron** · 12-05-2007, 11:14 AM

Beta driver for GeForce 6, 7, and 8 series GPUs.
Increased SLI performance in Crysis (official Crysis patch must also be installed).

WinXP

Not tested for any gains yet, about to install them. Also it's funny how the drivers mention the crysis patch, which means that should be out any second.

Have you had a chance to test out these drivers on your rig yet? I'm interested to see if they have actually done some improvements where SLi is concerned.

i dont think these will show results without the crysis patch (which is overdue now)

Yeah no change for me, i am awaiting that patch so i can finish of this review now to see if it's any different. (once i somehow remake the graphs)

Man that sucks about the Crash, I was hoping to read the review of this game's performance. Very interested to see the performance gains for SLI I know I'll be getting it with the new system but probably not right away. This could make me get it sooner though.

Well the article should be finished by this weekend. From what i hear though SLi hasn't actually improved that much if at all, but there is no new official driver released only profile tweaks.

I think we're all supposed to be on the 169.28s to play Crysis.

Like the game a lot, am somewhat saddened 3 Way SLi doesn't put me in the realms of gaming like I'm used to. (i.e. high detail, AA, etc)

Yeah, I understood that improvements were little. I would be interested to hear if minimums came up tho, at the very least. I know people want to see high numbers, I just dont want them to dip when the shit flies.

I'm using a custom demo to do the benchmarks, most use the GPU_Benchmark but i'm using the Assault level as the benchmark (flyby with all the shit going on)

That level has shit loads of stuff going on.
