    you should look anyways. some people have issues still. some might perform great on the games you have or plan on buying and then you might want to change for another game. some are better @ oc'ing than others also. some still want to keep powermizer functions and/or standy/hibernate, but some don't care as long as there is better performance/oc'ing.

    I like the newest 175 series drivers (175.75/175/80)

    Same performance as stock with better stability

    Do they allow you to set Custom Resolutions?
    Try it pls and tell me, for some reason it's not working for me,neither .75 nor .80 ..I tick the "allow modes not displayed by Windoze" and it unticks itself back!

    the .a3 was the 1st revision (of vBIOS) and the current revision is .14

    There is no need to update as far as i know unless you are getting downclocking
