    Rocks I installed it here is the benchmark from my GF4 Ti4600:



    keep in mind I have done absolutely no tweaking to my vid card so you could probably get better results if you tweak.

    I installed it this past week, well after installation (i can't pinpoint the exact problem) when i run BF1942 or 3dmark it just closes the window and drops me just like that.

    i can't say is 100% DX related but it did started happening this weekend(in our match actually 2 times this past saturday).

    i also changed cases and minor things in the BIOS, but it still does it.

    You need the 330 build for it to work. Patch upgrade I think!
