Hi, Thank you for posting a benchmark :)
Could you please add the specs of the system you have got? You might want to try the Sigma v3.0 and v3.1 as well - some people have noticed bugs while others found them to perform better. I guess if your lucky, you could see another small performance gain ;) On Jun 1, 1:59 pm, burgerbot3k <[email protected]> wrote: > I couldn't find a thread about Alpha 2 so I'll post a new one. > > Thanks very much to you guys for keeping the group and drivers going. > I hadn't realized new drivers would be released and have been using > v1.0 and v1.1 x64 for a long time, on Vista and Win 7.
