So when did nVidia drivers start doing 10bpp?

I was playing around with the driver settings today and I noticed something: A setting in the "Change Resolution" option for "Output Color Depth" that'll let you choose 8 or 10 bits per pixel:

I flip it on, and it works. My NEC monitor is reporting that it is receiving a 30-bit signal on the desktop.

I'm happy. Hopefully games will start to support 10-bit output for better gradients n' such.
 
Did you install the new GPU drivers? Ill have to check on my other PC, gtx 780 ti, but my gtx 670 and 350.12 drivers not showing the same.
 
Ya I always install the latest drivers when they come out. 353.06 drivers on Windows 8.1 with a GTX980 is what I have.
 
They added this in the 352.86 driver. I think the option supports up to 16 bpc for 48-bit color displays.
 
This isn't 4:2:2, this is 4:4:4. There is no chroma subsampling in RGB mode and the NEC monitor I'm using doesn't support it.
