    G-Xtreme drivers?

    Could someone educate me about these drivers? Are they that much better than regular Nvidia drivers? Will my system receive a boost from using these? Specs below. Thanks in advance.

    Firstly they're called Xtreme-G drivers, secondly they are overhyped crap.

      All the third party drivers do is some minor tweaking. The makers (such as Omega) even acknowledge that they do little in the way of performance.

        yea the difference isnt noticeble, but maybe by "placebo's effect", ull think that it runs faster than it really is.

                I tried installing Omega drivers for my ATI card and it killed my performance.... maybe it just didn't like my computer...

                  Actually, the framerate increase is usually real. What happens is people have their AA set to 4x and AF set to 16x in their original driver, and when they uninstall and reinstall, they forget that those settings got reset; and then they come running to forums screaming about amazing FPS gains. :p
