about same performance as 190.15's but do not downclock in idle, the 190.15 wouldnt allow a signal to be sent to my hdtv just gave a blue background instead of extended desktop but everything else worked fine, power management, gaming iq and temps so aside from both having atleast 1 flaw they are both pretty identical performance wise

Is the scaling bug fixed in this release?
You know, setting a scaling option doesn't work and it defaults back to using integrated scaling..

Tested GTA4 on my rig, no gamecrashes, played 45min.
Runs smooth on Medium/High, sliders at 20, vsync off and no shadow density. They load the city up a little faster then 185.85WHQL too.

I think those will be a constant you will have to disable the glasses from now on ..In order to keep them in your face to buy them...I will wait until l8er to day when my I7 and X58mb goodness shows up will load them fresh and see from that viewpoint.

heh? why would I want to disable the "FREE" 3D VISION DISCOVER GLASSES ?
just get yourself a 1$ red/blue theater glasses (or make one) and you have free "old-fashion" 3D for most games.
3D Vision Discover is NOT the same as the 199$ wireless 3D Vision kit + 120hz monitor
sure it promotes their 3D Vision KIT, but its also free for Anaglyph reb/blue glasses

sacred 2 crashed quite often with the 190`s so i went for the 186.18`s but they gave me the beloved driver successfully restored failure... quite annoying
former drivers seemed to be more stable...
