VAIO F - NVIDIA Drivers Update (197.16) for GT 330M (10DE-0A29)

[To no End]

258.69 won't work on mine and shows the ....no compatible drivers....message.

257.15 (1041 points) and 257.21 (1038 points) drivers worked straight from Nvidia's installer. The Benchmarks are the same as sheebp's results except that my temps reached 80-81 degrees celcius.

258.69 finally worked. I had to download the international version vs. the English version in Nvidia's site.
No changes in performance whatsoever but seems stable at the moment.

Hmm.. I did not like 257.21 I actually reverted back to 257.15 because Crysis, Crysis Warhead, FFXIV Benchmark utility, GTA3 would freeze consistently.

so hows the performance difference between the new 258.69 to the other 257.xx

benchmark please!! :]

the only thing I benchmarked with all three drivers was the FFxiv benchmark test.
Non-OC'd GPU yielded 1250 for the low quality test (Forget high quality at all..slows to a choppy crawl ) with differences in the +/- 2 range. Actually the 257.15 came out with the highest score at 1250.

Mangosango most likely has a GPU from a good batch. I cannot get 1382 at all from that benchmark.

Also, I realised, that my GPU does not OC well at all. Even at the 730/915/1515 or lower my GPU stalls. It seems like the fan does not kick into high gear when OC'd whereas it works well at default settings.

theres a new driver out on the nvidia website and im going to test it out because the 257.21 seems to be crashing a lot.

hopefully i can benchmark this 258.96 beta soon

what do you mean by crash?

what do you mean by crash?

driver failures resulting in black screens

I"ve gotten a score of 1562 with a little bit of OC, in the FFXIV benchmark, so I hope i can play it.
