Just wondering, are the 163.71 drivers the most optimized for Oblivion or should I downgrade to say, 93.71? The "best" drivers don't necessarily seem to be the best at all in some cases.:P
 
Nevermind, I found out that the 163.71 forceware drivers sucked ass for my 7600GS cards. The 158.xx series and higher were more opitmized for the 8xxx series of GeForce cards. I had AA sample artifacting while playing Oblivion and as it turned out, the 93.71 drivers worked better and I don't get nearly as much artifacting as when I do with the 163.xx series.:P If only I can get the window reflections to render properly, they'd be perfect, but now the window relfections are all messed up as the reflections are incorrect/blinking and now Vsync seems to be broken too when I use "application preference". Guess my next step is to try the 84.xx series. Heard they were more optimized for the 7600GS cards. Performance is still good on mostly high settings 1280x1024, LOW shadow filters, 2x AA/8xAF without HDR. Around 24-28 FPS in heavily forested areas. BTW: Sorry for posting in this section, this should really be in the hardware/software section. I was in a bit of a hurry.:(
