blindartist · January 8th, 2007, 10:11 PM

Hey guys, i know this has been asked before but it was a while ago and theres all sorts of new driver versions since then, i have a Leadtek A6600 GT TDH, i was wondering if anyone knows what the best all around drivers for this card are, right now im running 77.77's

And is there any other tweaks and such to squeeze out some more bang?

Well thanks for your time and help!

all the best

Great, thank you very much, i got the drivers on here, but ive got one question, the drivers defaul the ram clock to 1.8ghz. the card is only 900mhz stock, now i admit the idea of it running that fast is sweet but wont that kill it? it seems a lil high, i over clock the card to 550x1040, but 1.8ghz on the ram? i dunno, any thoughts?

This is odd, but with these new drivers the overclock ive used for the longest time fails the test, and when i do find one that works after i come back to the settings it has set the freq's back to 500x1.8, is it even safe to run this card at 1.8ghz? i think its thinking ive got like a 8800 with gddr ram or something

DDR = 900x2 = 1.8

The card still runs at the same speed anly display it as 2x

Yeah, the NGO drivers are the best, they are the most stable set i have ever tried. My dad has got an ASUS N6600GT and with the NGO Drivers he got something like 7-8% improvement (which I admit is a lot for a simple set of drivers).

But weirdly enough, they keep showing 1.8ghz on the overclocking specs even though if it running at stock speeds.

well if thats true then i am very impressed with these drivers lol, their running better at stock then my old drivers ran oc'd, which also means im gonna oc it a little now and see what i get.

Hats off to the guys at ngo, well done! I read that bit about nvidia trying to push you guys around, screw em, you guys have a better driver then they do, their just jelous.

and a good forum it is indeed, got the graphics tweaked out nicely, now im contemplating a slight oc on the cpu but im not sure if my board will support much(i havent bothere looking in my bios just yet) but the cpu idles at 39C so i think i could oc it without any heat issues with just the factory cooler
