NVIDIA Product
NVIDIA nForce4 SLI
NVIDIA nForce Professional 2200
NVIDIA nForce Professional 2200
+ NVIDIA nForce Professional
2050
All NVIDIA GPUs
• Improved SLI performance for DirectX and OpenGL applications
• Improved end-user control of SLI profiles and rendering modes – see descriptions
of SLI-based options in

Display Driver

• Improved support for custom timings, including non-divisible by 8 resolutions on
TMDS/LVDS panels, control of back-end and front-end timings, and variable
overscan shift values.
The driver can also present underscan modes on demand, and supports variable
underscan ratios.
• Off-screen 2D memory management optimization
• Efficient synchronization between clients allows for sharing of off-screen resources
with DirectX applications. This avoids potential performance issues with
applications that use DirectX rendered surfaces in ways that conflicted with 2D
caching.
• VESA Coordinated Video Timing (CVT) Support
• Support via control panel option for analog monitors
• Support for CVT/CVT-RB timing restriction using R&T strings
• Color compression support
• SLI Enhancements
• SLI screen capture support
• Improved performance
• Improved management of profiles between driver updates, enabling you to select
which profiles to keep and which profiles to update with each new software
