i recieved my GTX 280 yesterday afternoon & installed it when I got home from work at midnight.
I tried the older 8800 GTS 178.13 drivers, but that just didn't work well. I called the EFGA tech & they told me that the card would work better with the newer drivers so I did the EVGA p[rocedure for uninstall & driver cleaner in safe mode & then put the 185.85's in.
They seem to be working well. I have everything inl the EVGA control panel maxed out & seem to have fair views on aircraft & ground objects.
I need to do a coupla days messing with this & then I'll post what I came up with...
My initial take is that it is definately a better card, but I am still seeing ants running around on the Crimea map & the P38 cockpit is still unreadable in normal view..It just shimmers to beat hell. I think it is an aircraft design problem...
