Feedback I've read elsewhere on these was pretty mixed. The 177.92 seem to be the better choice for now.

I think IQ of the 177.98 is better than the IQ of the 177.92, but thye 177.98 has a bug with the digital vibrance setting going to 100% everytime the PC is restarted. It's irritatting to have to reset the digitalo vibrance setting after every restart. Other than that, I like the 177.98 better.

Heck, I should have left that digital vibrance setting alone. I had it at 0% and staying that way with 177.98. I moved the slider once....now I'm stuck at 100 % at every reboot too.

so, if the drivers are not posted on NVIDIA's beta/archived driver page, then it's a leaked driver then right?

That is correct CDsDontBurn. It was leaked or available from another manufacturers (such as ASUS, evga and the like) website. I did not like the digital vibrance always set at 100% issue with these .98s so I went back to the latest beta on Nvidias site which is .92. They run rock solid for me with Digital Vibrance and game profiles working correctly.

idk, i don't think i'd go with alpha (leaked) drivers. I'd rather go with betas that are already on NVIDIA's page.
