NVIDIA has taken the wraps off of the newest driver revision for GeForce 6000, 7000, 8000, 9000, GT 100 and GTX 200-series GPUs. Weighing in at roughly 80MB, this beta Windows XP/Vista/7 driver delivers the following changes:
- This driver supports all of the new Windows 7 GPU-accelerated DirectX APIs: DirectX Compute, Direct2D, DirectWrite, and DXVA-HD.
- Adds support for Ambient Occlusion: The newest NVIDIA Control Panel feature to offer enhanced 3D gaming realism exclusively to GeForce GPUs.
- Expands GPU hardware acceleration for the NVIDIA Video Encoding library to GPUs with less than 32 cores. Applications using this library include CyberLink PowerDirector 7, Nero Move it 1.5, Loilo SuperLoiloScope MARS, and CyberLink MediaShow Espresso.
- Accelerates performance in several 3D applications over v182.xx drivers. See the driver’s release notes for more information.
