For those using the June Release Preview, what drivers are you using and are you having any problems with them?

I need to set up a Win 8 system for work and can put either an AMD or nv card in it.

Please don't turn this into an AMD vs. nvidia slap-fight. The current Win 8 is just a "release preview" not even a Release Candidate and neither company was going to put their full effort into drivers for this version. It won't be fair to attack either side for driver quality until some time after the August RTM version is out.

AMD has stated drivers with the 7000 series performance wise are a little less than Win 7 at the moment, but prob not enough to make any difference to the eye.


Ran Win 8 on a Clevo Gaming Notebook with a 6990m in it, Ran just fine for me.
