    Hi,

    I found out that my New T510 graphic is old compare to Nvidia official driver page. (189.55 vs 258.96).

    Do you recommnd to updat a driver, even it is not official from Lenovo?

    thank a lot.

    Seeing as there's no switchable graphics to worry about in the Tx10 generation, upgrading to the latest Nvidia drivers shouldn't give you problems.

    But, I do ask this: why do you need to update them? Are there problems that you are currently experiencing that are fixed in the later versions? Are there major performance/feature improvements that are in the later versions that aren't in the drivers you're using now?

    I've generally operated on the philosophy that unless there's something important to me that I can gain from the latest updates, there's no reason to update - it only creates potential problems.
