Thread Starter 
I've been reading through all of your overclocking posts and I'm pretty new to it. I am just wondering which version of the Xtreme-G drivers shoudl be used with my 7900GS on my i9400? I see some people have some pretty good 3dMark05 scores using those drivers. I tried downloading the latest ones from laptopvideo2go and they said my card is not supported.

Dude i'm currently using 92.91 from laptovideo2go using the modded inf an XGtweakarizer 92.91 and it's runnig ok tougth they are beta. the only proble is one with nVidia's drivers itself, VMR rendering is screwd it only works with overlays for video playback and heere are some scenarios where you don't want this (a problem with the entire 91, 92 series drivers). But the drivers are great and are becoming even better. but if you want to go old school get the latest 8x.xx driver, they rock

sry to jump on to this thread but i got a similar question, my 7900gtx is getting low 3d mark scores (8000) no OC, 9.1.37 drivers from somewhere or other. I've tried OC b4 but my gpu doesn't OC very much until becoming unstable, idk. Can anyone think of a good reason why my GPU is running slow? or a good driver to fix it

try selecting "high performance" for image settings in NVIDIA's control panel & also run tests while on a/c, with power settings set for max. performance as well.

these are my settings http://img237.imageshack.us/my.php?i...ntitledxv3.png
I'm pretty sure everything is at default. I leave most settings up to the application so w/e 3dmark's defaults are would override i guess. I don't want to change settings to make things look worse just to get higher 3dmark scores unless thats how ppl are getting those scores in the first place...

xtreme-g 92.91 gave me hardware acceleration problems during video playback. stock nvidia beta 92.91 worked better.
