|  SKD 9.4 driver DX10 bencmark results
I hope you don't mind me opening this thread  There wasn't 9.4 one, so here it is.
I ran some Crysis tests. This was done on Windows 7 (which, BTW I'm starting to realize is only a beta) 7000 build, freshly installed. All the results are stacked against some previous driver versions. Res is 1680x1050. Code: 8.12 - medium - 0xAA

Nothing but Riva tuner is running in the background (and SKDT in case of the SKD driver).
While on lower settings nothing seems to beat the default 8.12 driver (maybe it's 8.11, I'm not sure which one came with Windows 7), but on higher settings SKD shows some gains. Of course, Crysis is not an end to end DX10 game, so what the hell.
