Logo NvidiaYesterday, Nvidia published the GeForce Release 175.16 Beta for 32-bit and 64-bit versions of Windows XP and Vista. The main innovation is of course support of the nForce 780a SLI, 750a SLI, 730a and 720a as well as the GeForce 8300, 8200 and 8100. Also, there is the introduction of Hybrid SLI or more precisely GeForce Boost with the GeForce 8400 GS and 8500 GT in addition to HybridPower with the GeForce 9800 GTX and 9800 GX2 – at least if these GPUs are combined with one of the above chipsets.

It’s been somewhat of a tradition to officially improve performances in numerous DirectX 9, DirectX 10 and OpenGL applications. This time various bugs are fixed essentially with SLI configurations, notably involving STALKER with two GeForce 8600 GTs. As is often the case, all GeForce 6-7-8-9 are supported in both OS while the FX is only supported in Windows XP. You can download it here!
