NVIDIA NFORCEWARE DRIVERS VER 6.14.11.6921 12-5-07

THE BLACK DEATH
10 SEC 40 FPS
20 SEC 55 FPS
1.07 SEC 15 FPS (*)

(*) This is the lowest point, at the time of explosion you can see the fps really drop to a crawl approx 1 min 7 seconds.

Vid Card settings are application controlled with VSYNC forced OFF. Things look pretty good all around. At perfect settings the visual quality is not noticeably better but FPS definitely drop. So this is how I run, I don’t seem to lose visuals but the FPS are more playable – smoother.
Prior drivers were 6.6.9.3 and 7.1.77, I think my FPS @ 1.07 might have been 17-18 with the 6.6.9.3 drivers. I may revert.
