    Thanks for the headsup, I will definitely be testing these ones out right now.

    Don't waste your time testing this driver. The 256 series driver will be officially out next week.

    Looking forward to your comparison to the 197.45. The FPS, vibrancy and clarity of this driver makes me want to stay with it forever.

    Yep, I already reverted back late last nite...nothing special here. Lost FPS and the vibrancy in DA:O and Borderlands. Might be different with LV2Go modded .inf, but I doubt it.

    Which driver would you suggest using for Quadro FX 570m with Windows XP? I haven't upgraded in a while since mine seems to work relatively well, but I just realized it's been about a year.
