Matlo

Ditto

I only updated it two nights ago from Nvidia, so I guess it's the latest.

well with my fx5600 I tried 3 differant drivers and there was no fps improvement with any of them.. I suppose it depends on the card and system youo have..

Im interested in knowing what 6800gs users use for there driver thow :P

the 93.71 forcewares were meant to be really crappy ones, with problems and all that carry on.

Im interested in knowing what 6800gs users use for there driver thow

Id just get the newest ones, and go from there. :thumbup:

I'm using quite an old nVidia FX5600 like Jimmy and am running the '6.6.9.3' driver set released on 29/10/2004, which works brilliantly for me :D
