Yeah the Xtreme G 84.12's gave me massive performance increases across the board.

Getting a BSOD with these too, each time I run a game/play a movie. nv4_disp causing the error. Actually, I have this with all the sets released after the official 81.98s. And I hate it, cause the 81.98s give me a really bad DVD playback quality. And I mean REALLY bad. Hope the next officials give me the quality of the betas (which is, simply put, perfect) with the useability of the official ones (as I can't do sh!t with the betas).

That's what I'm running too, they are good drives

just installed the 84.20's, replaced 83.90's.

So far these seem very smooth with decent IQ. I'm gonna use them for a while but I think I'll be keeping them.

BTW- if you care, I gained 160 in 3dmark05.

So does everyone think the Xtreme G drivers are a lot better than the official NVIDIA ones?
