SK-1Do I need the new drivers if I have a 8800gts 512? I am still directed to the last official release when I enter my info at the driver page at the Nvidia site.

Tatty_OneWhat driver set you on?

Downloaded and installed without issue on my rig. Don't have any useful benchmark info to compare from last driver set I used (171.23) as I mainly play City of Heroes these days...Crysis IQ looked good and gameplay was smooth. I believe my F.E.A.R. benchmark score went up by a few FPS. Only change in control panel I noticed was in the game profiles section, "show only programs found on this computer" was selected by default. Sadly, the bug with Star Wars: Republic Commando (where the game crashes if bumpmapping is set to anything other than low) remains.

Installed these drivers and tested in Unreal Tournament III i was happy to see that i can now enable AA in this game, and i looks so good and plays smooth!

Looks like they finally fixed the texture problems that all the 169.xx series had with Call Of Duty 1 (opengl) where the wooden doors texture was corrupted on my 6800 GT, these work great in Cod 1 no fancy looking textures and good FPS.

Cod 4 seems to also get decent frame rates with these and no fancy textures either, but had 2 crashes when I was changing GFX settings, no crashes during normal game play so far.

Ran these with COD4, and everything went smooth. Got roughly a 4-5 FR increase over the 171.xxs. I didn't get any freezes in-game, either.

Keepers for me.

This drivers worked great! for me. All games run smooth.

Hmmm, installed these with no problem but COD4 crashed and then I got the BSOD which I haven't seen in a really long time, lol

I rebooted and tried again - same thing.
