[mikelou26]

err
which one is BETTER for u?

6.31?
6.34
6.32
6.36
6.37?

 

[Compellor]

6.31. Trainwrecker.com did a comparison and noted that the 6.47 beta drivers are really buggy on VIA chipsets -- guess that's why they call them beta's.

I have a BX chipset and they are glitchy. I went back to the 6.31's

 

[MulLa]

What kind of glitches have you noticed? I went to the 6.47 but haven't had the time to test out any games on it yet

 

[RobsTV]

6.47's Work Great under i815e, but so do 6.31-6.35.

 

[OneOfTheseDays]

6.34's are currently the best out there in terms of performance and stability. The 6.27's are the fastest set out, but the 6.34's have better stability, which i will take anyday over performance.

 

[Nighthawk69]

6.47 work great here!

 

[mikelou26]

so..
6.34 the best?

 

[fastman]

6.47 with no problems.

 

[ahfung]

6.47 no problem.

Rock solid on my GF DDR/BX/W2K rig. No problem since 6.18 on my W2K.

And it is doing ok on my TNT2 M64/Apollo Pro/W98SE PC at work. Well I don't play game in office so I shouldn't comment further.

 

[BenSkywalker]

6.31s(though I haven't tested the 6.47s very much).

The 6.34s have some issues with texture compression, they display somewhat serious flaws when using precompressed textures.

 

[BAMAVOO]

6.47 of course they are good..

 

[OneOfTheseDays]

Ben, can you further elaborate about the 6.34's having serious texture flaws. I have yet to see any. BTW the 6.34's are currently the best set out there, go to all the message boards and ask around, most will say the 6.34's are the best

 

[RoboTECH]

Ben, are you saying that 6.34 doesn't work with the 2nd CD S3 textures for UT?

 

[BFG10K]

If you are having problems stick with nVidia's official 6.31 drivers.

 

[pen^2]

i heard some good things about detomax drivers... d3d performance 6.xx isnt all that great from what i know.

 

[Varborta]

6.47 flawless in fact it cured some of my problem from the WHQL 6.31 driver.
