WINDOWS 8 DRIVERS FOR MAC 1080P
Anybody who has followed resolutions for a long time will tell you that the higher resolutions have been shunned since the advent of 1080P with the 1920x1200 res of the better screens actually being regressed to 1080P for most 24" screens, most manufacturers thinking that the higher res.

Apple is a disruptive driver for change here.

Note that the Skyfall trailer is actually a full 1920 x 1080 window. The screenshot below shows the Windows 8 desktop at default (no DPI scaling) settings at 2880 x 1800: The thinking being that unscaled 2880 x 1800 would just be too small for the desktop, icon text and default UI elements.

If you remember back to our scaling and display analysis articles, Apple doesn't offer a desktop resolution equivalent higher than 1920 x 1200 under OS X. Just as before, switchable graphics isn't functional under Windows - the discrete GPU (650M) is the only one exposed.Įven without a working NVIDIA driver, I was able to get a feel for what a 2880 x 1800 setting would look like on a traditional desktop under Windows 8.

I tried modified drivers to get 650M support and even tried modifying some myself, but I haven't been successful thus far. The R302 Verde drivers are supposed to be due out in the not too distant future with support for the 650M, but until then you're mostly out of luck. Unfortunately, NVIDIA doesn't offer a downloadable GeForce GT 650M driver for either Windows 7 or Windows 8 just yet.

I had to use the Broadcom wireless driver from my SNB MacBook Pro to get WiFi working under Windows. The problem is Apple doesn't provide a Boot Camp driver set for the Retina MacBook Pro yet. Windows 7 won't expose any resolutions higher than 1600 x 1200 without an actual NVIDIA driver, while Windows 8 will let you select the full 2880 x 1800 panel resolution: This behavior isn't specific to this system, the GeForce GT 650M doesn't have native driver support in either OS at this point and these are the defaults for the standard VGA driver in both cases. Windows 7 by default starts up at 800 x 600 on the Retina MBP, Windows 8 defaults to 1024 x 768. After getting both Windows 7 and Windows 8 running on the machine, here are some quick thoughts. Many of you have asked for information about the behavior of Windows running on the next-gen Pro.

This will likely be the last small update before my full review of the next-gen MacBook Pro with Retina Display.
