29.42 Performance

mixxx · Jun 16, 2002, 02:48 PM

I was tempted so i installed the 29.42 WHQL set. So far all scores are on par with all other sets
28.xx and above.

Hey Omega, why does Nvidia use those number entries in the registry? I have no clue what they mean. At least you were able to decipher what those d3d
mean. Anyway

3dmark2k1 scores are the same. Opengl is smooth and d3d is clear. ok bye

Hey EFA11 waaazzzzuuuppppppp!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I posted some UNDYING screens there. I play at 1024/768 32tap and 4XFSAA

...are the official 29.42's for 9x/me a little quicker/smoother in openGL than the leaked set?

(I agree with you on the performance mixxx, I like these too.

Yep these WHQL are 100% stable and have fine speed and image. Those drivers are good Digital!

Yes, the Official nVidia 2942 Drivers seem to be a little smoother in GLMark than the tweaked ones. That's why I dumped the tweaked ones and went back to the original nVidia ones.

Original 2942's = 78.4 GLMarks
Tweaked Omega's = 73 GLMarks
