You are not gonna believe what I found!!!These are the 8500 SMOOTHVISION enabled drivers we have been waiting for. They will be officially announced tomorrow at Comdex. Someone jumped the gun and posted them for about 15 minutes earlier today......

Specific Improvements:
1-Nature performance has improved about 40-50% from 23 to 32FPS
2-Single Texturing fill-rate has been dramatically improved - 25 to 35% improvement
3-DOT3 Bump Mapping increased about 12%
4-Vertex Shader speeded by 10%
5-Pixel Shader speeded by 17-20%
