Post how the 27.10s are doing for your! Make sure to include what Geforce you have!

So far i've tryed them on Ghost Recon and it improved image quality on certain stages and overall performance seems better. Can't really benchmark as FRAPS doesn't seem to work with them, so i'm eyeballing the framerater built in. So far stability is pretty good.

I have noticed a slight increase in image quality also.

Seem stable... not a single problem so far.

Been running them for abour an 1.5 hours now.... thus far:

I noticed a very incremental improvement in visual quality in DirectX applications.... small enough that one would need to take a screen shot and compare side by side to really notice anything though. Still, it's nice.

Shockingly enough, I've had no issues with the ever annoying nv4_disp infinite loop bug at all.... if it hasnt shown up this far then I doubt it will.
These are the only Det4's besides the 21.81 that I havent encountered the infinite loop bug. (21.83's were quite good also though)

I got a small performance drop all around in both DirectX and OpenGL applications without FSAA... but it's only about 2% so I don't really care.
I did actually get an equally small performance <B>gain</B> in 4X FSAA though, with no performance difference at all with 2X FSAA.

I havent noticed any compatibility issues thus far, but I've only tested a handful of applications.
As soon as I installed the new drivers NVMax stopped having any effect though. GeForce Tweak Utility stopped working too.
Luckily I managed to get NVMax 4.0 Alpha to work after reinstalling it.
