That is unreal:
- RAM work at 667MHz @ 64-bit máx (if I´m not mistaken) in laptops
- C2D bus work at 667/800MHz also which should be enough to flood the RAM with data
- Though FSB is not for the IGP, generally RAM frequency (and CPU) is set according to the FSB or PCI on most OC programs for...
Drivers are very cool but one of the ways to increase graphics speed always was overclocking since early days of 3D boards. I got up to 50% speed increase OC both GPU & MEM.
On my GM965 (X3100) + C2D T7100 I don´t know how to overclock it and even a chipset can be OC aswell as the C2D. It...
Well in the end you can expect up to 50% on fps increase (if so much) but nevertheless you can play most 2007 games at 640 or 800x600 LOW at decent fps. In two years we´ll have another PC with another graphics and until then *we hope* intel optimizes their drivers to use X3x00 chips at their...
This beta version (I´m running it) does not seem to support DX10 (GM965) but it does support Shaders v3.0, at least when I set them on Pro Evolution Soccer 2008 (High Settings) it runs very well!
I tried the default setting of my GM965 15.8 (with no option to change energy savings) and the...
Yeah, I couldn´t post before as my internet was very slow.
15.8.2 for Vista.
- Assassin´s Creed still doesn´t work
- Crysis still incredibly slow
- Test Drive Unlimited a little faster, I suspect a little bump on speed with these drivers but far from good.
Here you have 15.9 (beta)...
You´re right but X3100 is (in theory) better than a Radeon 9600/X700 on hardware specs. X3100 is running on a GMA 950-based driver and Intel is slowly introducing X3100 code as they have plenty of time until the GPU-on-the-CPU (as Nahalem) is released. I almost bet that that GPU will be based on...
Intel drivers put most of the work on the CPU as most C2D can do on software faster than x3x00 do on Hardware. So if you own a good cpu you´ll get good performance. Intel does disappoint on the drivers they have: though best than some years ago, Intel drivers are still buggy and *very* slow. To...
With 15.8 Vista 32-bit + reinstall Directx 9.0c (nov 2007) all runs well.
I only got problems installing, I advice uninstall previous drivers and after reboot install 15.8.
I noticed a little better performance on Sega Rally (the newest) and Test Drive Unlimited and better compatibility.
