I did not try the proprietary driver from Nvidia, > AFAIK it has latency problems as well. while i heard rumors about latency problems of the proprietary nvidia driver, i did not experience any latency issues. when i did some histograms for the multicore signal processing engine of supernova on my nehalem workstation, i was measuring a maximum jitter of about 10 microseconds. unless you don't want to use the proprietary nvidia driver for political reasons, it is fine to run it for low-latency applications ... but testing it is probably better than relying on personal opinions ... tim -- tim@xxxxxxxxxx http://tim.klingt.org You don't have to call it music if the term shocks you.
