I have two games that supposedly have Ambient Occlusion in their profiles (Fallout 3, WoW). The option isn't in either game (it should be above aniso filtering I would imagine). Anyone else finding it missing? I have an 8800 GTX and thoroughly scoured out the old drivers with Driversweeper in safe mode (as usual), so I had a clean slate for installation.

AO is enabled DRIVER SIDE on most games today, the only game i have found with it as an option in game is the new riddick game, and if you enable AO it dissables AA....

just enable it in the games profile and your set(you can even turn WoW shadows to LOW and it will look ALOT better then the stock wow shadows)

give it some time, these are the first drivers i have seen with AO support built in :)

grab nHancer it will let you edit game profiles FAR better then nvidias own CP(alot of options they dont offer like AA modes using super sampling)

you can even enable AO on games with no AO profiles, its worked in a few tests i have done.

I'm sorry, I may have misspoke. Its not in the Nvidia Control Panel "manage 3D settings" period. Not under any game, grayed out, enabled, whatever. I've seen screenshots of the new Nvidia Control Panel with the 185.XX drivers and the option should be above the anisotropic filtering option. I don't have it in the drivers in other words.

Edit: Did some more Googling. Its a DX10 feature only. No where in Nvidia's release do I see that mention.

Works fine with EVGA Precision and EVGA GPU Voltage Tool v1.0, though I noticed intermittent stuck in 3D, severe performance losses in Cryostasis and Bioshock (all I've tried thus far). I'll be going back to 182.08 whql's again. I'd go 182.50 or 185.81b but after folding for a few hours+ my fan randomly kicks to 100% out of no where for no reason, sometimes I can turn it down w/Precision, sometimes it requires a restart (odd), but 182.08's are still solid drivers, I don't necessarily mind not going to 2d as this card is always folding when not gaming. I guess better luck next whql maybe...

My average FPS in Cryostasis and Bioshock was around 11-18FPS with these new drivers...I don't recall beforehand because both played smooth, Bioshock more-so.

Now which driver will actually work best on Windows 7, the W7 version or the Vista version? The last time, it was better for me to use the Vista driver on W7.

I wonder if these drivers will yield better scores for Folding. If they do, then i will update my drivers. If not, then i wont. at least for now.

Now which driver will actually work best on Windows 7, the W7 version or the Vista version? The last time, it was better for me to use the Vista driver on W7.

I wonder if these drivers will yield better scores for Folding. If they do, then i will update my drivers. If not, then i wont. at least for now.

Since 185.81, the Windows 7 drivers are the best drivers to use between Win Vista and Win 7 drivers IMO

I was using Vista drivers up till that point. :)
