But here a new question appears: is it WORTHED to install newer drivers or
not? i have GF4 MX400 card and i often wonder that...



What ARE the best drivers for the Ti-4200 actually?

Some say 44.03 (the one I use)
Some say 43.45 (as he uses)
Some say 45.23 (haven't tested those)

Anyway, Source (Half-Life 2) complained about the drivers beeing to
old with 44.03, but the newer drivers has no better DX9 support,
right, as this is as hardware thing (says hardware DX8 and software
DX9 in the Half-Life 2 video settings pane). Or.... ?

I ahve used these drivers at various times with a G4 ti4200 and G4
ti4800 with good success in various games, as needed to boost
performance/quality/stability. I skipped the 3x.xx and 4x.xx series
completely - too many problems in too many dx/d3d games

ti4200
53.03
56.64
56.72 - needed to get Dues Ex working in dx/d3d without crashing
Ti4800
61.77
66.93
