.... Not sure what to make of this. Many folks are enabling SM3.0 is the 61.76 drivers (it's there). I'm sure the results would be simular anyway. I just seems farcry has become a benchmark tool, and it's getting a little boring at this point.Since NVIDIA’s current driver, 61.76, doesn’t provide SM3.0 support, we were forced to continue to rely on 61.45 for our GeForce 6800 testing. Since CATALYST 4.7 doesn’t provide support for geometric instancing or 2.0b, ATI provided us with a beta copy of CATALYST 4.8, which will be released next month.

its not, sm3.0 is supported on 61.45 drivers and UP, haven't read this review myself because frankly im sick of far cry, they need to get they're chit straight, i dunno how long this game has been out, but its been long enough to have this game running properly and it isn't. the only time i got to played this game ok was with ATi and 1.1 patch....Thrawn42 said:The more I think about it, the less this explanation becomes plausible.
Why would SM3 support be dropped from a more current driver version?
