Enjoy.

Not all cards though are they

8 Series drivers are still listed as 169.25, I'm not going to use Quadro drivers even if they do apparently work on all cards

Fail thread!

These work just like the normal ones I dont see the problem.

Why aren't they listed for the other cards then?

Surely if they were just fine on every card set they'd release them that way

I have intentually never said much in any of these driver threads.

I stuck to an older 169 Beta that gave me Zero issues where as all 174's gave me issues.

Im now on the offical beta for Vantage and all CRT settings are back in Vista drivers finally.

I can simply wait till next week for the promised drivers.

Gonna wait for the proper 8 series release here. Still listed on 169 under the 8800GTX section.

As they are their Quadro drivers, but as said by Will, they work just as good as their gaming card drivers (as all their drivers are universal), plus the Quadro's benefit from having better iq.

The last set of Quadro performance drivers were the best set I used in ages on my 8800gt, better than any 170 release, so I'm very happy to run these.

Cheers for the HU.

They must be separated from the normal "gaming" drivers for a reason. Don't think it's worth second guessing the developers.

Do these support SLI (GTX8800)? (The Windows XP 32 ones)

EDIT: Yes they do support SLI, and have therm working now at the moment. Thanks

Thanks will give them a test run.

I thought Quadro = CAD, and that drivers designed for CAD work are typically designed just for that, not particularly optimised for gaming. I dunno, I could be wrong, anyone got comparisons? >>

No your right if you are not running a quadro card these drivers cause the card to self destruct in 66666 seconds

Seriously they are fine I've used them before and give equal performance to the forceware drivers and better IQ.

Working fine here, and the IQ's great, about time the 8's got some WHQL drivers.

When are the official ones for the 6,7,8 series cards getting released?.

I'd try these but I'm already using modded 174.93's so I'd see no difference (ok, maybe 0.12FPS gain ).

Sometime next week (supposedly).

Sorted, cheers m8 .

I look forward to the half a frame performance leap .

Cheers, Loadsa. I'll test these if i can be bothered to uninstall my current ones.

Runs fine in TF2 for me

Well, I've got them installed now, fixed a couple of graphical problems that I was having in TrackMania and they seem to be a little faster than the set I had before. Loving these Quadro drivers.
