    w00t! I was wondering when more WHQL ones would be released. 185.85's were getting stale.

    Those performance increases look the exact same as they did for 185.85. I haven't had any issue with the 186.08 betas.. I may give the certified ones a whirl, but we'll see. Good to see them turning out new drivers pretty regularly.

    I'll update as soon as I eat some very late lunch. Thank you for the update.

    I just hope they fixed their 2D/3D clock bugs. Sometimes when I finish running a 3D application it doesn't drop back down to 2D clocks which keeps it at 50c idle as opposed to 40c or lower.

    So far, so good! The texture flashing, I was experiencing in Counter Strike Source is gone, so that's a good thing!
    Wonder why no one is complaining yet! lol :banana:
