Very pleased with this BFG 9600GT, although I have one issue:

I have used a couple of different drivers, 171.16 (which is on installation CD) and 174.53 (in XP Pro (32 bit), but what I have found that is when I run a bench (@ stock & o'ced speeds), like Crysis or 3Dmark06, it will give a correct result after running it once AFTER a new driver install (having run Driver Sweeper in Safe Mode before each install), but if I try to run it again on that same driver, the result drop to 33% of the previous results.

It is fine when just used generally....

Is this issue simply driver related, and if so what is the best way to cure the problem, ie. so that I can run benches (one after another) and get correct results without degradation...?

Thanks.

Anybody have any ideas how to remedy this issue I'm having...?
