New Nvidia beta driver for skyrim...
Graphics Driver - GeForce 290.36 Driver - GeForce
New drivers installed.
Here is the changelog for the 1.2 patch. Supposed to come out Wednesday for PC.
Don't really see much any mention for performance increases with PC other than bug fixes. Just PS3. Hmm...
(all platforms unless specified)

I guess it's making the armor a tad more nicely highlighted/shaodowed with it on. I can;t see nay differences in the landscape though.
Supposed to be a better illumination model, maybe more pronounced indoors or at night with other lighting sources around?
Yeah same here - can't really see any difference.
BTW I would recommend everyone backup their saves/game folder in C:\Users\UserName\Documents\My Games\Skyrim\Saves before Wednesday's patch - You never know
Also has anyone with an ATI card tried the 11.11b drivers? Thoughts?
Thanks.
This page has some nice examples with a slider so you can check out the effect. It adds mainly better shadowing. Looks especially nice on the underside of tree branches which should be darker that the upper side.
