Quadro Workstation User’s Guide
Appendix D
NVIDIA ForceWare Graphics Display Driver — Feature History
Support via control panel option for analog monitors
Support for CVT/CVT
RB timing restriction using R&T strings
• Color compression support
• SLI Enhancements
• SLI screen capture support
• Improved performance
• Improved management of profiles between driver updates, enabling you to select
which profiles to keep and which profiles to update with each new software
update. This ensures that if you have setup your profiles in your current driver,
you will not lose any settings when you update your driver.
• Improved high
resolution scalable desktop functionality for Quadro GPU
based
workstations.
DirectX
Improved driver stability and performance, including the following areas:
UMA support
2D operations
SLI
NVIDIA Display Control Panel
Release 75 includes enhancement to the following sections of the NVIDIA display
control panel user interface:
• Additions and improvements in the Performance & Quality page (see
“Adjusting
Performance and Quality Settings” on page 97
) include:
Combined DirectX and OpenGL application profiles on one page
All application profiles, including workstation applications, are combined into
the same application profiles page.
Added a
triple
buffering
option for improved frame rates. (Does not apply to
applications that are fully OpenGL
based.)
Added a
transparency antialiasing
option, which applies to graphics cards
based on the Quadro FX 4500 and newer series of GPUs. This option enables
transparent pixels (such as between fence links or leaves on trees) within
textures to be used in edge blending operations to clean up jaggies in images.
