    ^^^ well,nVidia family will miss you bro.

    Anyways, my last nVidia driver for a long time was 267.74...won't change them until I see the results myself. ;) love the 267.74 for 460M.

    A very unique 6970m that is one of a kind as far as we know.

    looks like we dont need a modded inf with this driver, has anyone installed it and know if it has full brightness control and sound over dp with the 460m?

    Full compatibility and brightness control has been present for many versions of the nvidia drivers before this one. Everything should work fine.

    Basically if you get taken to a driver when selecting the 460m GTX from the drivers page, it will always work. Has been the case since 266.58
