What are the best drivers for a 7800GT running win xp?

The title pretty much says it. I am running a 7800GT in my rig below and have not updated my drivers in a while. What would be the best set (beta or signed) to run on? I will be getting an upgraded card (whether the 8800GT, 2900XT, or 9800 if it's out is not decided yet) later in the year and putting that in this rig but for now I just want a little better performance.

I thought about replacing the 7800GT with the X1900GT and building a whole new rig later on but I don't think that will give me the performance increase I am looking for now and it will cost a little more in the long term. This way I get a better card this year, then build a new quad core pc around it sometime next year.

Thanks
 
Get the new driver


Bioshock = will run fine will run fine at decent res
MoH airborne = will run fine run fine at decent res
World in conflict = will not run fine on decent setting but everything low at 1024x768 may run fine
Medieval total war = will run fine at decent res
Crysis = will run fine at 1024x768 8xAA , some setting on medium , rest on low
TF2 = will run fine on everything high with 8x AA/AF

I'm curious why you say this about WiC? I did the beta test and the demo at 1680x1050 everything med or high with no issues. Bioshock runs tons worse than this...

And do you guys like any special version of the driver? I'm currently using the tweaksrus drivers, are these better than the "normal" ones?
