![]() Sounds good. Looks like he got a nice boost in the Nature Demo with those drivers.

![]() I went from 26 to 37 in Nature on a [email protected] from 7206 to the 9008 (Win98SE) developer release (12/19). Most everything else was essentially flat (DOT3 was actually reduced slightly). The biggest improvement in 3dmark2001 is in image quality. Fog and smoke are much cleaner with no banding. This is also the case in OpenGL games like RTCW - much better fog. No improved anisotropic or trilinear, however. Mize

These drivers are looking very good. In some respects 12/10 was better so hopefully they'll fuse the two. Mize

"The anisotropic filter employed by R200, in terms of texture clarity of distant objects, is conclusively superior to GeForce3 (Figure 14). A slight disadvantage of R200 is that it does not filter between mipmap levels (i.e. trilinear filter), though this is not noticeable with a high level of detail."
