You can check out other comparisons in the thread titled "Let's benchmark some of these damn nvidia drivers" Copying and pasting in Firefox is a pain in the A__ on this forum for some reason.... I don't have HL2 yet so I can't benchmark with it, but you can see the other comparisons there....

Smilie

these drivers seem to work great, i changed from 66.81whql over to these 3DM01SE went from 19125 - 22685 and have played HL2 for an hour and a half with no issues on 4xAA and 8xAF game ran great, haven't tried other games or benchmarks yet, they are going really well so far.

Sorry zardon I was mistaken, this not step based on the 67.20 uniquely but on several versions to drive nvidia beta and official, I finished my tests and I did modifications at the level of their dll in regards to the shaders, she is called special version

Hey,

Something I think everyone at Nvidia has forgot about is that there is still ALOT of people playing Counter Strike, Team Forttress Classic and other HL Mods.

Laterly I have notice server FPS drops in CS and TFC when using any of the Newer Nvidia Drivers. 61.77, 66.81, 66.93, 67.02.

Maybe you could head towards like the Modded ATi Drivers at Techconnect. They have great direct3D and two opengl drivers that you can choose from in the install. One for Newer Opengl games and one for Older Ones like CS.

Those drivers at TechConnect for ATi (NGO made them I think), Happened to have my Laptop running TFC as good as my Desktop. Which I am really really pissed with. Cause I just brought this nice new 6800GT.

Anyway if anyone has any ideas about what Nvidia drivers will give good HL2 but still run HL1 Mods fast let me know.

Soon as I can find your new set Knyz, I am going to test run them.
