Well, as I said I have had those settings since the start with DX9 and it didn't change with DX11.

In NCP - Texture Filter Quality - 'High Quality'
Description: Turns off all optimisations when set to 'high quality'

@JHTrucker

So, what's the recommended settings for section 4. Texture Filtering?

EDIT: When I read my NPI bible, the ONLY parameter that mentions that High Quality disables it is this.

@BenganJ - You need to read NCP Texture quality description - typical usage - not filter descriptions.

You don't have them listed but as you state high quality then there's no need to show them.
But if others want a sub optimal image quality then they need to set texture quality to quality and then they can enable optimisations to lower the quality a bit further.

@JHTrucker

Well, I can't find that info anywhere, but then I should point out that, as the damn stubborn idiot I am,
I'm still at NPI 2.3.0.10 and Nvidia driver 442.19 and NCP at 8.1.940.0! Go figure! :tease: :tease: :tease:

In that case, you should update the driver and NPI version as well so you can help us in more better way. :laugh3:

It's in all driver versions since for ever... i think.
Here's what i see with 441.12 & NPI 2.3.0.3 (which doesn't matter as it just lists whats in the driver anyway).

@t2patel

I don't think so yet, as I'm damn satisfied with the performance I've got.
I can still set SILK Smoothness in NPI. Probably I will make a full update
to the latest versions when I have my not yet unpacked monitor installed.
