8800gtx drivers

Hello, I just ordered a Sager notebook with an 8800gtx and was wondering what drivers would I be better off with. Should I just stick to the ones on the sager web page or will the laptopvideo2go drivers work just as well. The reason I ask it is it seems the laptopvideo2go drivers come out faster.

TECHNETiUM is cool enough to have people show up to his/her party!

Woody87 has a few people on his/her side.
The latest drivers on the Sager support site are only a month old for Vista and five months old for XP. I think that's pretty recent so you might as well install those since they're supported. I'm personally using older drivers and I don't recommend updating from the supported ones unless you start having specific problems with your video drivers which you shouldn't. Specific problems would be something like not having support for a late release game or having a known bug that has been fixed in a later driver release.

People think they always need the latest video drivers but it's not always the case. If it ain't broke, don't fix it.
