Couple of Questions?

[lost0822]

This will be my first nvidia card i've ever had, i have a ATI 9600XT at the present time, but my 6800GT is coming tomorrow. First what drivers should i use when i get this card. I want one that will be reliable. Also i'm getting Far Cry bundled with it, this will be the first time i'll have the full game, i have the demo, i want to know what patches and drivers are going to work best with this game and what programs do you guys use to unistall the ATI drivers and the process you go through to do so....i was just thinking Driver Cleaner, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Official drivers will be posted on Nvidia's website early next week.

Version 1.1 (version 1.0 dont work right):

Version 1.2 will enhance IQ and performance over 1.1 when it comes out.

with this game and what programs do you guys use to unistall the ATI drivers and the process you go through to do so....i was just thinking Driver Cleaner, any suggestions would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Reboot into safe mode, uninstall your ATI drivers from add/remove programs, remove the ATI from device manager, then run driver cleaner 3, reboot back into normal mode, install the 61.72 drivers and hope for the best

Some users still experience ATI residue even after doing all that and sometimes resort to reformatting, but for most that is not the case.
