Which Detonators to use?

[wolf550e]

which ones should i use? there are way too many and i am totally confused. i currently use 6.50, there are 2 newer 6.xxs, there is 7.52 which is (i think) DX8 optimized and some crazy 10.50!!!
what are you using?

Good ol' 6.31's with no problems at all.

It`s best to stick with official drivers like the 6.50 unless you have problems then try the beta drivers,you can try them anyway but remember they are not official.Btw I use the 6.50 drivers which are rock stable on my PC.

Is the 6.50 better than the 6.34?

If so what is better about it?Speed,Stability,compatability?

Hey wolf this question will get so many different opinions but I myself have tried just about every single driver in the det 3 line and have settled on the 6.72 more because I see little difference and these are newer. I will check back here to see some other opinions and that will probably start me up on a driver changeing binge untill I finally decide theirs no difference.. hehe

Oh yea I had stability issues with the 6.47,6.49 You may not thats just on my rig

I havn't tried any of the 7.**

7.52 are the best, both DX8 support and they are very fast.

Agreed, I have tried most of them pretty extensively with benchmarks. The 7.52's were head and shoulders above the rest in Windows 2000.

i use the 6.50 drivers

I use the 7.17 drivers with some pretty good results.I think the 7.xx drivers utilize directx 8,but I may be wrong.Anywho I like them the best so far.

Sorry, I can only speak for Windows 2000. Dunno about Win98. I think I've heard that 6.62's are really good for 98, plus they are MS certified. Although the overclocking hack doesn't work on them.

6.18 I am still using

I dont see any major fps/stability improvement in the newer 6.xx, so I am sticking to 6.18 for now
