Converting back to Nvidia


Hey guys, Just dropped the cash on a evga 8800 GTS 640MB vid card.

Currently using my sapphire x1800xt 512MB card.

Now i haven't been an nvidia user since my geforce 4 mx 440, great hardware there, lol, at the time 64 MB wasn't too bad!

Anyways, It's probably overkill since i only really play CS:S @ 1280x1024.

What are some good drivers to use with this card, been hearing lots of mixed comments on which versions to use.

158.27 for Windows XP
165.01 for Vista (I think.)

My card will be here on Monday and Bioshock will be here when it gets here. I'd get Supreme Commander (I originally JUST wanted Supreme Commander) but I'm really not into/never really understood, the whole "space" thing. I mean I really don't care.

I'm more of a Lord of the Rings, Warcraft III, and Age of Empires kind of guy. (Just picked up the Nintendo DS version of AOE II and it's AWESOME!)

Hence there's nothing out in that domain for me to play right now (since I refuse to go for World of Warcraft). I've got Oblivion. So I intend to crank that up and work my card out on it.

Only space game I ever really cared for was UT2004. So the next Unreal Tournament might be of some interest to me.
