    yes... numbers i love numbers. are they better then the last ones or worse? do they crash your games flickering things like that. interested in unreal engien performance since i play americas army hard core tweaked so that i get high fps. how well do they work? cause i like the 55.55 or was it 56.55 the whql ones that just were released...
    thaks for the work guys it helps me decide if i want to risk crashing or not...
    later

    do waste your time they were rewritten by this guy to support the Go series

    I tried them and went from 47k to 33 k in aquamark=They prty much suck

    I cannot get these drivers OFF my system fast enough. Played several games (Halo, Knights of the Old Republic...). Huge drop in Image Quality, looked like some pixel shader effects were not being properly rendered, lowered texture quality... In addition temp on my card raised by 2 or 3 degrees C.

    Thankz bopper, but I think a 14000 point drop is a pretty good indication of the performance of the driver

  10. For the rest of the people still reading that maybe thinking 'I know ill prove em wrong and download it for my self and put this driver on and see' DONT BOTHER!!!!!

    These must be the worst drivers i have ever had the misfortune of putting on my PC (and hard to get off to)!

    DONT DO IT ONE AND ALL! U HAVE BEEN WARNED....

    :mad: :eek:

    These are definite fakes, the code is bit-to-bit identical with the 56.55 (and I mean code, not resources).

    in terms of everything,seriously its fast.

    in mohaa i get 100-106 fps with 44.67(betas) in a specific area
    with 40.72 i get 72
    with omegas 45.23 i get 92
    with the 55.xx-53.xx i get 87-91 fps

    and in 3dmark 01se. with 40.72 i get 200 points higher than the 44.67 (betas),but its solower in the regualr games.
    44.67(betas) are by far greater!!!!!!


    i annoy you huh.....tch too bad :)
    well for me 44.67(betas) is reallly great,no blurryness:D :D

    dunno...i get alot better image quality with 56.55 with rivatuner forcing 1.1 PS and VS for speed
    whatever floats your boat i guess :p

    lol
    ,
    well seeing as VS can be run in software it ain't really a perf hit,

    its PS2.0 that is

    No they are not identical to the 56.55 filesize on all DLL files are different..
    But yes the 56.57 sucks big time, changed back to 56.55 and got twice the FPS

    I don't know about that. I tried playing SW KOTOR with the 44.67 and i get major slow downs, all my other games were good. I tried the 56.55's and the slow down in SW KOTOR was completely gone. Everything was smooth like it should be. Older drivers don't work very well on some new games:(

    Filesize can be changed easily. The code IS IDENTICAL. This is not an assumption, I've verified by doing bit compare of the dll sections containing executable code.

    WARNING THESE ARE FAKE DRIVERS

    WARNING THESE ARE FAKE DRIVERS

    because look at the openglnt.dll Properties->Version
    the dont changed with the newer Driver

    with every DriverRelase this Properties Entry
    is changed

    v56.55 openglnt.dll 1.5.0 (change 1007857)

    the Same but "newer Drivers" this must be wrong
    v56.57 openglnt.dll 1.5.0 (change 1007857)

    also the Driverdates from Mainfiles56.55 are 29.01.2004
    the Driverdates from 55.57 are the same they should be
    newer because the VersionUpgrade.
