    I would get the DOX'S 180.84, most NBRer's are using this driver from what I have read, and with little problem.

    that driver slows down crysis though. Ive tried so many other drivers. Is there anything else that could possibly doing this?

    I just recently switched to the 179.28 and think it is a great driver. I've had no problems out of it and it is very OC friendly for me. However i do not play TF2 so there may be some issue with that game if it is freezing up. And you pretty much can't go wrong with DOX's stuff, he puts in a lot of time and effort to bring us great drivers.
