I like the new media center thingy, and the IQ is great without a loss of speed. (Oh, and the textures in U2 are just fine. ;) ) I haven't played with openGL yet, off to check.

Yeah, there were a few betas floating around that had great speed/IQ and were great all around...but they TOTALLY hosed all the textures in U2 (Unreal2). It was weird, but the world textures were fine...just the actor skins were goofed, but they were REALLY goofed. Like inverted and put on sideways, totally bizarre and distracting in an unpleasant-kind-of-trippy-way. These do NOT do that, and Unreal 2 runs very nicely on them and looks absolutely gorgeous. :)

I've been using the 42.86's for a week now. These a probably the same just certified. Do they work on all cards?

They worked on my vanilla GF3 just spiffy and it's usually one that has trouble with 'picky' drivers. ;) These are different than the 42.86's I think, they're better.
