For me they are absoulutely fantastic. They are faster and the colors are brighter and sharper. They DO seem to be optimized for Pentium 4 and AMD Athlons (mine is an Athlon 1.2 ghz T-Bird). Many thanks again, CD, for the info. I would reccommend them to anyone, at least to try out.

They are integrated drivers for all Nvidia cards...

Granted, they may not be any faster than the 1210s, but they do give better and brighter colors. At least for me they do.
You were right CD, got the 1240s over at M3DZone. Gonna try em tonight. Thanks.

FYI, Nvidia is going to make an official Driver release next week...with one of the 12.xx's (don't know which)...

May 20th, 2001, 19:40

I'll be sure to keep my eyes open. I'm hoping that the official release wiil be the 12.40s. I am using the 12.40s right now and I am very impressed. They are easily the fastest drivers I have used yet and the colors are more vibrant as well.

I will stick w/these, official or not.
