NVIDIA GeForce 9600GT 512MB First Full Review Posted

PConline.com.cn has posted what should be the first official full review of NVIDIA GeForce 9600GT 512MB. In this 16 page long review you'll find in depth comparison between GeForce 9600GT, GeForce 8600GTS 256MB, the newly released GeForce 8800GS 384MB 192bit and ATI Radeon HD3850 256MB. On page 3 there's also a size comparison between G92, G94, G84 and RV670 GPU cores. The review is written in foreign language, but I'm sure you won't need a dictionary to understand the pics and benchmark scores.

ffdshows current version seems to not use yv12 on current nvidia drivers, im sure this is a workaround to fix the problem.

and the cccp version isnt any diffrent from the standalone just the standalone updates come out b4 the cccp updates come out.

the reasion i update versions is that they are alwase fixing buggs and getting cpu use down with diffren decoders, AVC for example in 1 revision update went from using 20-30% cpu to render 720p h264 viles to using 12-14%, huge improvement!!!!!

thats good. Being on a quad core here and an FX-62 on my media PC, CPU usage isnt really a concern. I've used coreAVC to get a pentium 4 2GHz running 720P files, that was quite a good excuse for lowered CPU usage.

With disabling yv12, is it really a huge concern? Are we missing out on any major quality?

no, yv12 uses less cpu to decode, its just one of the possable ways to decode/display the video, rgb32 is the best quility wise but uses more cpu, i know in the days of dual/quad core its not that big a deal, but the less cpu it uses the smoother its gonna be when ur multi tasking(i watch anime and do other stuff at same time :P )

blasphemer! you must watch anime in fullsreen with 110% attention! P

Pity that it uses more CPU power, i guess its low priority for Nv to fix.

How does one force RGB32 in FFDshow? i'd rather max my quality to be honest.

go into the cccp start menu folder and look for the ffdshow video decoder settings button, click that, then go to bottem of the left side list and click output and uncheck all but rgp32 and 24, also can leave YV12 to RGP conversion checked as it helps with YV12 encoded videos.
