Hi again,



What pearls of wisdom can be offered in this case.



I have the Creative Labs Annihilator Pro video card. I am currently using the Creative 28.32 drivers that are up on the Euro site.



They seem to be ok but I was wondering what pros can be offered to use the NVIDIA drivers instead.



Anyone use either or both?



Thanks for any help.

i think most people are going to prefer the nvidia reference drivers, unless there's some xtra special feature they need that only comes from the company's driver.

well I don't personally .. but if I recall correctly the Creative Labs cards aren't different enough from reference Nvidia cards for you to NEED to use Creatives' drivers .. I used to have a creative Savage4 and I never used creative drivers on it. dunno if that helps ..

I also have a Creative Anihilator Pro, and i've been using the Nvidia detonator reference drivers since i first discovered them.... they seem to give me better performance... but i think it may depend on your system (my lame system is a P3 450 with 256mb ram ermm.gif )
