    wtf, from those results, it shows 320MB is half the speed of 640MB when running at High preset. there shouldn't be so much difference?

    edit:
    800x600, very low preset, 550/800

    XP, Vista'll come after I finished my baccalaureat. Should be in the middle of November as far as I can tell right now. So no DX10 for me. What do you run?

    no wonder why i've got such huge difference when benchmarked at High. WiC enables Dx10 when going from medium to high. you haven't got Dx10 effects turned on.

    i ran Vista 32bit (going 64bit soon) and with 163.69. just updated to 163.71 beta (optimized for WiC, according to nVidia) and average FPS went up by 2.

    i think we should forget this, our systems differ too much, and testing a 320MB against a 640MB for signs of impact of CPU affecting game performance is just not a fair test. to have a real test, we need someone with a different CPU architecture, such as AthlonX2 6000+

    Many of us are to nubby to be graced with many nukes, I still prefer mutliples of alternate strikes anyway.

    Anyone with an NVIDIA 8-series, try the "Alt-Tab" fix when the frames get tough. Months-old ForceWare bugs Cheesecake.

    I recently (i.e. 12th October 07) did a windows update on my graphics card. So would that hotfix be in that update.

    Bad idea. Windows update sucks for drivers, download the latest stable or Beta drivers from nvidia.com

    Grab the hotfixes too, not all of them are in Windows Update yet. :)

    i won't recommend Beta drivers, the .71 and .75 gave me some good ol' nv__.sys stopped responding errors. the latest official stable release .69 is rock solid for me.
