Quick Question on Updating Video Drivers

[spono]

I'm running an eVGA 7800GT on the 81.98 Forceware drivers.

Everything I use works flawlessly, so is there any reason to update my drivers?

Reasons might include better gaming performance, better overall performance, better overclocking, etc.

If everything is really running flawlessly, I would leave well enough alone.. drivers can be a real bitch, and if all is well, leave it alone.

Is there the possibility that you may see a slight increase in gaming performance? Yep, but there is also the chance that an unnecessary upgrade will make things worse.

In my opinion, leave your drivers as is until something is not running the way you want them to.

Thanks, that was my first instinct as well. I'll leave the drivers alone for the time being.
