Good choice for a driver. I had better luck with some of the earlier ones though, like the 91.92, and some of the beta 92.xx like the 92.91, but quite a few people I've talked to had better luck with the 93.71. If anything I'd try that set first.

Nvidia keeps an archive of all their older drivers which you can get on their site HERE, Prelude. Give the official ones a try first, then move onto some of the modded drivers.

Or they say they have the same "specs" as you, but don't mention the fact that they don't have, or rather aren't using the same components as you. It's one of the reasons why I hate benchmark comparisons as there are so many variables that people don't take into account when comparing their system to someone else's unit, wonder why they aren't seeing the same results, and immediately jump to the wrong conclusions (ie. that you sold them faulty hardware, or that something is wrong.. when it's not).
