So, I installed my HD4850 while rather tired, and didn't realize till the day after (just now) that I had installed the HD3850 drivers...

Everything worked perfectly fine, except my 3dmark06 score was a bit low:
SM 2.0 4230
SM 3.0 4737

Going to go ahead and install the CORRECT drivers now and repost my score... D: lol

SM 2.0 4562
SM 3.0 5284

You meant older drivers right? Drivers aren't exclusive to video cards. Newer drivers support old cards and new cards.

Ah ok, understood.

God, so far I have really made myself look like a complete nub on these forums.

Well, if I did that I would really hope someone would drag me out back and have me shot. :)

I have actually been building computers for a long time and doing minor OCing. Actually worked for a comp repair group before it went to crap (Geek Squad).
