they are okay drivers i get mad frame drops in and slowdown at random times in fallout 3 but for the most part except from that they seemed fine
one other problem i forgot as i was typing is that digital vibrance is changing the desktop far to much like 0 is actually black in white i found a good setting at 45% tho
I would imagine if the version number hasnt changed, its exactly the same as the beta, but now with a WHQL certificate
the beta was a bit iffy now this one is fine
the only thing ive noticed changed was the erm resolution menu in the control panel :laugh:
its a decent driver if youve had problems with the beta give these
some horrible driver releases from nv lately.
ever considered it your system not the drivers, ive seen on guru 3d not that i am a member i just steal drivers but anyway yeah ive seen a lot of people complain even when the majoirty say one set is perfect one guy will always say blah blah blah no offence just a suggestion
I was hoping that these would fix that, but they have not.
Just because the driver works for you, doesn't mean it will work for other people - No offense, I'm glad it does :toast:. But that one guy that says the driver doesn't work for him is not lying lol.
I'm still on 182:P
heck I don't care anymore, I don't play games anyway...:D
i use the international UK drivers and ive had to restart every time through a prompt
