| the 185.65 set are the better ones because they have added the Ambient Occlusion feature in the Nvidia Control Panel...I was using the pre-beta Ambient Occlusion set and they were very good...now that they are on the official Nvidia site we should be seeing the official 185 set being released soon

| Re: Nvidia Releases 2 Sets of New Drivers (4/2) Can somebody tell me where to find the settings for ambient occlusion.. I still haven't figured or found them Or does the card/software automatically applies them? Edit.. ok now I just found them.. first time though I guess you have to have the right card/OS/drivers combination?
