let me know if you get a performance increase

Will download when it's not a BETA.
Also it's pointless unless crysis enables sli for me.

Nub... there is a reason why they release beta drivers and its not cos they are unstable.. if your running vista you gotta be running beta drivers to get anything out of it.

Agreed, I only run the latest beta drivers :P

Thats the download url from firefox download history. Try that.


:edit: oh, i see, there is no US version yet. pfft to that, you should be using the internationals anyway. There is a vista64 int 169.04 beta avail.

You keep running your alpha, I'll stick to the updated betas. :bigglasse

I just downloaded the Vista x64 from nVidia.com. I had to uninstall the 169.01 as it was the buggiest thing nVidia had ever released - It was released for Crysis, but it wouldn't let you launch Crysis in x64 :/.

I'm guessing this release, only being a few days later, will be similar performance, minus the bugs (I hope).

Thanks - already got that one, thought maybe there was a newer one....

I think the only way I'm gonna get Crysis to run any better is another 8800GTX in SLI with an additional 2Gb mem (at the moment).

How would another 2gig of memory help? I have 2gig and I only use 1.5gig total when playing. That's 500meg+ of system in there too.
