NVIDIA GeForce 7800GTX + 1.0-7675 Driver Preview

Throughout the different visual settings, the Leadtek 7800GTX saw as much as a 15 FPS improvement while most of the frame-rates were between a one to twelve frame improvement. As the CPU is rather restrictive, we seen a majority of the 7800GTX driver improvement come when the game was utilizing various antialiasing and Anisotropic Filtering settings. As you can see, the 1.0-7675 drivers bring some definitive GeForce 7800GTX Linux gains to gaming. These new 1.0-7675 Linux drivers should be released today (August 5, 2005) within the next couple of hours and we expect the drivers should start to hit the various Linux repositories soon after. Overall we're very much pleased by the 1.0-7675 Linux drivers and the GeForce 7800GTX. We expect it will take NVIDIA at least a few more releases until the flagship card can finally shine under Linux and offer substantial advantages over the GeForce 6 series. Linux 7800GTX owners should finally be ecstatic that additional support is right down the road. As always, we'll keep you posted on all improvements and changes.
