very nice how much

Haven't installed yet, but I hear mostly good things. However, I've been hearing a lot that these new drivers have problems with CoD4 and 5 crashing (a lot, it seems) or freezing up. Can anyone confirm?

[SuperKid]

Nope, no COD4 Crash here.

[ViperAFK]

cod4 runs fine here as well.

[Minifig]

Noticing a slight improvement on my 9600 GT in WoW with this update.

Will the Vista 64-bit drivers work with the 64-bit Windows 7 pre-beta (build 6801)?

[Ambroos]

World in Conflict has greatly improved performance (avg 25 to 33 (both with dx10 and without). Does have some graphics issues from time to time, where buildings turn purple for a while, but that's all.

(Vista x64)

Thank you for the update. (Y)

Looking at the address, I guess these contain the new beta of CUDA 2.1. Anybody knows about any other changes?

Guru3D are hosting 180.70s if anyone wants to use beta drivers.

LINK

Unsure if links to other forums can be made so mods please remove the link if needed, its not hard to search their site for them.

[Kronir]

Anyone test to see if the .60s or 70s are better than the .48s? Just wondering which is the best to update to for gaming. :D

[+BeLGaRaTh Subscriber¹]

The forums on Guru3D are saying the 70s seem better for gaming, but it seems to depend on the actual rig, so its best to suck it and see, I did'nt notice any difference really :(

Really? mine went backwards :/ it lags up more now and for some bizarre reason it won't let me set the resolution higher then 1680 x 1050 :ermm:* was fine on the old drivers and could set the resolution to my LCD's native (1920 x 1200) and ran reasonable well. That is using a GTX 260. I'm guessing my slow Core 2 is the culprit? (as I believe a Quad core is recommended, I just have a "Conroe" Duo - E6700) However, Race Driver: GRID does seem to run tad faster now, that is maxed out at 1920 x 1200....

* = Nevermind, seems fine now must of been a weird glitch or something that was caused when I updated Far Cry 2. It's fine now :)

I can't wait for TweakForce's "XG treatment" on the newly released .70 beta drivers. I rarely encounter problems, even though they're considered "beta". They never seem to disappoint!

[SMELTN]

so whats the difference betweeen the 180.48 and the 180.70 drivers?
