174.74 Beta Drivers Available (Vista/XP)
Just wanted to give the heads-up that it appears NVIDIA has released new beta drivers. I've personally been waiting for these for a while as they fix a rather significant compiler/optimizer bug to do with using local arrays/indexed temporaries in control flow (apparently also a problem on the CUDA side!).
They also add support for the 9xxx series cards and IIRC expose a control panel option to limit the number of frames that the GPU is allows to "get behind" in the command buffer. Anyways, enjoy! |

 Seems like a big pile of SLI fixes a few other game fixes. TBH I don't find their changelog to be particularly helpful in most cases... for instance it didn't even note anything about their fix of the aforementioned bug.

Thanks. I've been having trouble finding drivers that like this 1Gb 8800 GTS.
