Forceware 87.08 (x32 modded beta)

IQ is excellent and performance seems to be up with these driver

Download
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=TY1TW83P

Also available for download at
http://downloads.guru3d.com/download.php?det=1394

------------------------------------------------------------------
These forceware beta drivers also add the following new options to the advanced section:

Threaded Optimization
(probably usefull for Dual Cores\Hyperthreading systems)

OpenGL error reporting


Noticed a new entry in Screen Resolutions (could possibly been there previously):

Show standard HDTV formats

Also seems the Advanced Timing section may have changed under Screen Resolutions. (not sure since I use PowerStrip)

Well, the 84.43 were also inf-modded, but still run like a dream... Maybe I should try these.

As the 84.43 are hosted by NZone and are the official Betas released by nvidia i very much doubt these are inf modded drivers.I don't mind using betas as long as they come from a reliable source.

The 87.08 are extremely Beta & border alpha,Big difference.
