These are supposed to increase FPS right across the board. Some people have said a 1000 increase in 3DMark. Anyhow, I don't seen them immediately on the Nvidia site, but I guess they are a little late posting on their site, but there are other sites and I'm sure you know where to go. Enjoy!

2000 & XP. Haven't done any SOF2 testing, though Direct3D works just fine & they finally allow anistropic filtering changes in Direct3D in display properties.

make sure you remove any refresh rate tools, and remember to remove your existing drivers. There has been some stated problems about the driver but "only" related to upgrading over your original drivers. Apparently all I have heard is that the graphics look better and points in 3DMark went up quite a bit. As I am at work with a crappy ATI card, I cannot test them. Go to www.nvnews.net, there are a lot of responses on it and everything looks good so far.

Quite a bit faster. Some of it has to do with a texture detail in the new control panel.

Just because they arent WHQL certified, but who cares, consdidering I went from 11,719 to 12,325 3DMarks, and the fact that I have gained 10-20FPS in my fave games is reason enough for me. They are stable, no issues at all. Besides nothing much is going to change from now to the time they are WHQL cert.

Yea but you have to keep that running in the background dont you? With the one RamRod listed you run it once, and you dont have to keep it running in the background, wasting resources. Both get the job done though.
