Appendix D NVIDIA ForceWare Graphics Display Driver - Feature History • ARB_draw_buffers • ARB_color_buffer_float • ARB_half_float_pixel • ARB_texture_float SLI Support Improvements • SLI support for OpenGL workstation applications with Quadro‐based PCI‐ Express graphics cards. • Additional SLI support - Release 75 adds support for the following combinations of PCI Express graphics cards and NVIDIA products, as listed below: NVIDIA Product NVIDIA nForce4 SLI NVIDIA nForce Professional 2200 NVIDIA nForce Professional 2200 + NVIDIA nForce Professional 2050 All NVIDIA GPUs PCI-Express Graphics Cards GeForce 7800 GTX + GeForce 7800 GTX GeForce 6600 + GeForce 6600 • Improved SLI performance for DirectX and OpenGL applications • Improved end‐user control of SLI profiles and rendering modes - see descriptions of SLI‐based options in "Adjusting Performance and Quality Settings" on page 97. Display Driver • Improved support for custom timings, including non‐divisible by 8 resolutions on TMDS/LVDS panels, control of back‐end and front‐end timings, and variable overscan shift values. The driver can also present underscan modes on demand, and supports variable underscan ratios. • Off‐screen 2D memory management optimization • Efficient synchronization between clients allows for sharing of off‐screen resources with DirectX applications. This avoids potential performance issues with applications that use DirectX rendered surfaces in ways that conflicted with 2D caching. • VESA Coordinated Video Timing (CVT) Support NVIDIA Corporation 202
