GF2MX + DVC = COOL :)

Very nice Nvidia. I think this has to be one of the best innovations to hit the graphics industry in a while (I don't own a GF3 yet though). My background is a Ferrari F2001 leaving the pits. After turning the DVC slider up to one spot below full, I just sat there looking at this "New Background" for a couple minutes. I am amazed. Not just the red car either, the way the sun is reflecting off the tires lookes much more realistic (read: less like a picture). There is some heat coming off the engine and I thought it looked like smoke before (I knew it was heat though). The pants of the pit crew are made out of a semi-reflective material, I can see that now. Even skin tones are much improved. I am very pleased with this new feature in the 1080 drivers. I haven't tested any games other than Madden 2001, but GP3 is next, then Falcon 4, Mech4, Earth 2150, heck, I'll probably even install Decent 3 again. I'll bet Shogun, Deus-Ex, and MDK2 will look a lot better too. I think the landscape in Shogun will look a lot better too. Whoever came up with this idea should get a big raise.

OK, I'll get off the soapbox now. Next.
 
98SE. go to Display Properties/Advanced/Twin View. Choose Output Device, then color correction. I don't see why it's under Twin View. I only have 1 Monitor, and the card I have certainly does not support twin view.
 
It's a shame that the 1080 drivers cause lockups in 3D games. I even tried DirectX 8 but that didn't help. Oh well, it's back to the good ol' 6.72 drivers. 🙁

The new FSAA controls are cool though.
 
WOW, thanks quaggoth. I am impressed. VBC is awesome! UT has never looked as good as it does now and this is with win2k! Thanks!
 
It`s cool for richer deeper colours,I`ve not tried it yet in a 3D game.

Update:WOW!! UT is better I did`nt notice those 32bit colours before, but now even on the low setting for DVC it`s good.

🙂
 
I hope Nvidia put this feature on their later video cards,I think I will miss it, especially if it`s only available on the MX.
