I'm looking at d/l some drivers off the internet for my Gf3 Ti 500, and i'm wondering if the Nvidia 30.82 WHQL driver have been any good?Any problems with them?CheersWill

Honestly Will I have tested out ALL of the newer drivers with my PNY TI500 and the best ones have always been the 22.80s. I believe most of the newer drivers are designed to work with the newer GF4 cards but will function with the GF3 TI500 Series, just not optimally.Give the 22.80s a go and let me know what you think. Also, try the 23.11s and the 23.12s, they also ran very well in my system but when using the 23.11s I had a few stability issues. I didn't with my old system though so the problem may just be indigenous to my system (my computer doesn't like some things, lol).Hope this helps you out :)Shane

For me, the best yet. 23.11s were fairly stable but gave me some probs ... 40.41 have been doing weird things. I'm back to 30.82 now on two cards/three monitors with the stereo drivers also 30.82. All seems very good, no conflicts.Horses for courses, though, surely. And I couldn't tell you whether my mipmapantiostropicantialiastweakblasterthingummyjig is better or not. Everyone has a different system and different needs.Mark "Dark Moment" Beaumonthttp://www.swiremariners.com/cxkaitak.htmlhttp://www.swiremariners.com/reds.htmlhttp://www.swiremariners.com/cxkaitakv3.jpg
