I normally hate this kind of post...but, being a hypocrite and a walking bag of paradox, I'm curios how this set performs.

Well, Gads, I will go ahead and d-load + install and give my gosh-darn opinions. Here we go.....I guess.

This nforce set contains Geforce 181.55. I have just installed geforce 181.55 from this set on my 8600gt and voila ... IQ is great. Graphics corruption in 3d games popularly associated with 8600gt is gone. I can now play POP 2008 and Fallout 3 without any problem. Keepers for me.

only thing that changed in 15.25 and 15.26 compared to the 2008 version (15.23) drivers is the IDE and SATA drivers, the rest is the same, ethernet/blahblahblah = same version.

worth it if you use the nvidia drivers for your Harddisk, otherwise dont waste your time.

I'm sure that is how nvidia has them listed and using the nvidia driver tool comes up with 15.25 for your chipset not 15.26. Apparently both versions will work. However the link for the Vista64 15.25 is dead.

15.26 is the same of these ones with Forceware video drivers.
Has anyone benchmarked these ones against the great 10.3.52.4 sataRaid drivers?
