if you set these in the nvidia panel does it override any in game settings?
Great to see that they've rolled this out to to older cards
The adaptive vsync works fine on older cards.
The new AA....I am not sure yet (testing bit-by-bit with BF3)

Unfortunately, Adaptative V-Sync Half-Refresh is broken, FXAA is delivering lower performance than 4x MSAA on different setups and Frame Rate Target is missing altogether. I should add that there have been some rather nasty reports of the driver installer mucking up things with PhysX, CUDA and DirectCompute support vanishing altogether, TDRs and more crashes on 3D apps.
While Adaptative V-Sync and the performance improvements on specific scenarios is nice, it's definitely not worth the plethora of issues that these drivers have. I'm waiting and hoping the next WHQL driver set will behave properly.
Pee poor drivers, why are they even released...Oh yes its beta drivers, my bad.
So far after installing, no performance improvements on my gtx460 as far as i can tell BUT and this is a major but, all my games are borked, text is ultra hard to read to a point it looks as if text is read at a 800x600 res on a crt... its that badand every time i exit a game the drivers claim to have crashed and need restarting.
Going back to the last certified release as i need to be able to read text!
