oc affected by driver?

i was wondering if newer drivers improve oc ability? my 9700pro seems to max out at 335/330 no matter wat driver i use. even when i first got it with driver versions in 2002 to present drivers i cant seem to oc my card anymore than 335/330 without crashing.

No, OC ability is dependent on your physical card parameters. Drivers won't have anything to do with it.
