    I went from 163.75 to 169.09 and I am happy with the improvements, however real time benchmarks have proven that .04 > .09. Does anyone else have the reverse happen? This'll be my 2nd driver install within 24 hours o_O

    I dont think there are much difference between the 169.04 and 169.09 contrary to the benchmark scores showing 169.04 as being better. If you are happy with 169.09 and your games run fine with no hitches or crash outs then stick with the 169.09 i say.

    Besides with the new drivers and cards, the 3dmark benchies are no longer a gauranteed performance indicator here as some of the new drivers even though have a lower 3dmark score perform better in the new games coz of optimizations..
