I finaly replaced my 9800pro with a evga 7800gt. the problem is i know nothing about nvidia lol. first of all i need a program that will show the on screen display (fps, memory, temps) i dont like googling this because last time i ended up with alot of flaky programs. i also want to know if there are any better drivers out there then the nvidia ones. i dont plan on overclocking it right now

Usually there is a console where you type in a command that will show this kind of stuff.

Ex. hl2- net_graph 3
etc.

i found that battlefield 2 has that but what i was using before for my 9800pro was ati tray tool which gave an option for osd which you could pick what you wanted it to show. i have mobo and cpu temps fps and free system memory. i was just wondering if there was anything like that for nvidia cards

Try rivatuner for card diagnostics/ hardware monitoring and fraps for ingame fps display.

Cheers.
