what's a 59oo xt? aparently there is one, but i never heard of it.

anyways there is no "595o ultra," but only a 5950 because 5900 ultra is basically the 595o's non ulra form.



5950 ultra = 595o

59oo ultra = 595o non ultra

There is a 5950U.

did i say there wasn't?

[-:Nighthawk:-]

No, your phrasing just happens to suck.



Anyway, this is kind of ironic, given that I got sick of the 5x.xx line and decided to revert back to my beloved 23.11's, to see if things will run any smoother for me. Dang lockups, arg.

Driver updates DO matter. FPS is a big thing in CS and other games. 99% of driver updates give greater performance of some sort so this woukld prove interesting to CS players.

This kind of news doesn't need to be posted here, this is what sites like Guru3d are for. Maybe i'm wrong but this is CS site and i don't see any CS specific fixes in this driver. Anyone else have a different opinion?

Hi!! I need something to whine about today and this is the best I could do.



Thanks you CSN for posting useful info.

First of all, when did they change from detonator? Second, your link to the realease notes is bad.

Funny, I use MyIE2 with the Mozilla skin. Works wonderfully. Doesn't use as much RAM either.

myie2 is based on IE as the name suggests, therefore your talking about a completely different browser.

They changed when the versions got to the 50's I think. The link at the nvidia site to the release notes is bad too :P

MyIE2 *is* IE. They've just put a pretty face on it. It's still a bugged piece of rubbish that's holding back the development of the web.



This was the first place I heard about this release, so it was very thoughtful of TorchedN00dle to post it. Praise be!

The day you can show evidence that IE has anything to do with the holding back on development will be a hilarious day....



Ah wait... you can't prove they are... since you don't know how IE works or what the internet is truly capable of. Pfft... anti-microsoft arguments are just retarded... if you hate it so much, switch to linux or a mac, otherwise, no one really cares as long as it does what its meant to do.

what the hell ? cs max's out at 100 fps



cs is also sooo old now you could draw each fps on paper and still end up with 100 per second, any thing over a GF4 for cs is overkill



and bah at nvidia ripping off ATI

The HL engine is the most fucked up engine there is. Every bit of a boost is a good thing...
