They shouldn't be beta, since the Ti line of GeForces come with them, according to what I've read.

I'm using those on my GF2MX, haven't ran benchies, haven't seen any changes, but I usually upgrade drivers as soon as possible.

No change with these 21.85's or the 21.81's compared to my 12.90's running 3DMark2001. In fact, the 21.85's are just a bit slower. I've been using 800X600 16 bit mode.

use 32 bit mode and it WILL give you a higher score in 3dmark2k and 3dmark2k1. I think that 16 bit mode is the culprit

I trying the 21.85's right now. They seem good. No big visual difference between the 20.81's. (We'll see)

why would you want to run your games in 16 bit now?
