[FONT=Arial]I've been trying adaptive vsync on the new Nvidia 301.24 beta driver. I've noticed brief instances when GPU usage dips from around 85% to as low as 30% on each video card in my SLI setup. The slowdowns usually happen when I make quick turns with the mouse or when running. I've seen this happen in all of the games I've tested so far. Frame rates suffer a noticeable drop.
I know 301.24 is a beta driver -- and designed for 600 and 500 series GPUs, at that -- so a few bugs are to be expected, especially on older cards. But before I rollback to the previous drivers, I was wondering whether maybe the problem is just due to some setting in the control panel which I've neglected to set. [/FONT]
[FONT=Arial]I'm running two GTX 470s on a single 22" Samsung monitor at 75Hz refresh rate. I have in-game vsync off, adaptive vsync on in the CP, with power management at maximum performance.[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial]Have any of you guys been using adaptive vsync on these drivers? If so, what settings are you using? [/FONT]
