High Dynamic Range Rendering

GeForce 7800GTX



GeForce 7900GTX



Last but not least, HDR rendering. As you can see, very little has changed. There is a difference between the screenshots (the light reflecting of Sam's left shoulder), but that's probably nothing and you certainly won't notice it in gameplay. What about Serious Sam II?

There is a small difference between the two (look at the waterfall), but again that's negligible. There seems to be a slight difference in HDR between the GeForce 7800GTX and 7900GTX, so maybe NVIDIA did 'cut some corners' in this regard. However, the differences are minimal and you most likely won't notice the differences in actual gameplay.

With these new drivers (and the new card), you can expect pretty much the same image quality you can expect from NVIDIA's cards. There are some issues, but hopefully NVIDIA will be able to iron them out. Just goes to show you to always be on the look out for image quality changes each time a driver comes out.
