10.6 Beta2 Leak Driver Available

Seems some users are seeing pretty good performance gains in DX11 titles including Metro 2033. Minimum frame rates in particular seem improved according to users on the Rage3D forums. Thought I would post over here as well.

Ugh, as usual with all the 1.4 and 1.5 drivers, I can't see any improvement in Metro fps.

I wonder if this includes the BC2 hotfix that didn't make it into the 10.4 or 10.5 WHQL or if we'll just end up seeing a "10.6 Hotfix" for that too

how big is the increase in metro 2033? alteast 10%?

There was a big boost for Metro yes. That is for DX11. No idea what DX10 does yet so I would wait for the official release if you do not have a DX11 card.

On my 5870 I saw zero increase with everything maxed( except MSAA ) at 1920*1200.

I guess I will wait then. I have a 5870 as well.
