Smilie

I'm using them on my machine, i have only one benchmark tool AquaMark3 at all default settings and no o/c i get the lowest score of all the drivers i have tried (35,339) the SS 56.72x being the highest (36,202). As for graphics and stability, they seem to be one of the best, my games Farcry, Doom3, SplinterCell and DungeonSiege they all play great

If you are having problems playing your games i would give them a try, if not stay with what you have, I had to go back to nForce driver version 5.10 (614Beta) along with video driver version 56.72 (76.02) to get my machine to stop acting up.

Me, I'm still waiting on Omega to possibly drop his next release of nVidia's stuff.

hmm.. hey guys

is a video card capable of having its dx6 capabilites die without the dx7 capabilites going as well... coz my mx 440 is losing textures in any dx6 plugin used with my n64 emulator but opengl and dx 7 and 8 emulators are working fine
