Somebody try these out im wondering if these are better then the offical ones 5.10 being beta i dont know if i should try them out just yet. 5.10s are working great and are a fast also so i might pass on these untill i hear someone else try them first.

Curious on the best way to uninstall the old nForce drivers and install new ones? (hopefully a quick step-by-step answer)

Thanks!!

A lot of the solid veterans over at nForcersHQ simply install on top of the old ones without uninstall and reinstall based off of some theory that the whole process of removing the drivers causes more problems than you could possibly get from not uninstalling.

I've been doing it ever since and never had a problem. Heck I don't even get the mysterious video lockups in games anymore since I adopted that.
