Hi,
I am getting a new system in a couple of days and a Gainward Ultra/650 XP (Ti4200) "Golden sample" will be included in it. I was just wondering that which drivers should I start using for it. There are a lot of Detonator drivers available that have bigger version number than the latest official ones available in the Nvidia homepages. Also, Gainward providess its own drivers (version 28.32). So, which would suit best for me? I prefer stability over getting the last drop of performance from the card..
Also, there a lot of different "tweak utilities" for the Nvidia cards. What is the best of them for "light" overclocking, tweaking and disabling vsync which I have been told is not possible with the detonator drivers?
Then there is the famous "One can only get 60Hz refresh rate in Win XP when playing Direct3D or OpelGL games"-issue. Does it concern every card in the market or are only some cards affected? What would be the best and safest solution for the problem? Powerstrip utility has been recommended but there are also specialized utilities such as RefreshLock and RefreshTool.
Thanks!
