    Thats a giant big leap in performance for a driver release, I would say its fake. If not, Nvidia have some explaining to do to us 8800 owners as to how all of a sudden you get those speeds after months of nothing.

    I will beleive it when i see it.

    LOL, I really doubt that they're real.
    Why in the hell should they do such a big jump in the driver numbers?
    It's just not logical..

    That would be a dirty trick to do on 8800 owners. :behead:

    i wouldnt mind though (as the 8800s performance wasnt exactly crippled by the previous drivers anyway)..so if they release something that makes the 8800 fly, id be more than happy..

    or maybe that "magic" driver isnt stable yet thus we have performance-limited drivers but more or less stable drivers for now

    but thats just me

    Just look at nvidias logo in the control panel its the old one, if they had drivers with that big of a number version jump I am sure they would at least change the logo to the newer one in the control panel. But it would be nice to see some new drivers that work good.

    We have no real reason to expect this to be real or genuine, and I consider it trolling without any additional evidence.

    I dont doubt drivers of this quality are being produced. Nvidia had finally stabilized Vista (well for most anyway) and is now working on improving performance. Perhaps the giant leap in numbering is due to a giant leap in performance?

    WOW, did I misunderstand this topic or what? LOL! Ok so they are XP drivers (allegedly) and I could not care less. Vista is where its at peoples.

    well the guy who posted it was known for having "leaked" info about other drivers..and he's a beta tester i presume.. so there might be a chance its real (hopes)
