Newest Nvidia Drivers

Gonna hold off on new builds until the temp bug is fixed, which it is, so I really mean't the next build I get my hands on ;D
 
I'm not sure if the temp problem is really...a problem. Maybe it is just incorrectly reporting, and not actually making it hotter. On the other hand, if you over heat you might not realize it. I will be going back to the 66.xx series for now.
 
well if you still use the stock fan, it increases the speed it runs at which in turn increases the noise levels.
 
zeke, i'm guessing you're using a card somewhere in the 6 series? if so, then you really don't have to worry about overheating and not noticing it. i say this because, if it DOES overheat, it is absolutely sure to let you know about it, in the manner of dropping your colors down to 4 bit, and VERY low resolution, which will result in an extremely crappy looking game if that is what you're doing when it does get too hot. Trust me.... it happened to me already playing Star Wars: Republic Commando. nearly shiz myself when it happened cause i thought my card fried or something on it fried.... but then i realized if that DID happen, i would have lost all video. just turned it off, let the card cool down, turned it back on and everything is now back to being just peachy.

Thank NVidia for auto-underclocking overheat protection. :)

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?
