Default 67.03 - WHQL ???

Anyone know or can give an educated guess as to how long before we see a
WHQL version of the 67.03 drivers ?

I intend to build my new PC this weekend and want the most stable driver for
my new MSI 6800 PCI-E card.

Cheers

Leaked beta's have now reached the 70's so the 67.03 might not become WHQL.

I have honestly never seen a direct link between WHQL certification and
"stability." Some of the MOST stable and problem free drivers I've used in
the past have been non-WHQL beta releases-- which ironically I upgraded to
from WHQL certified drivers in order to solve problems with certain apps and
games. Remember that there have been plenty of "official" nvidia drivers
that were never WHQL certified, and plenty of "beta" drivers that WERE
certified. Remember also that a lot of the "official" driver releases from
card manufactures are non-WHQL beta drivers.

If there is a reason you want to use the 67.03 drivers instead of the
currently official 66.93's, you should just go ahead and use them.

If Microsoft tells you a driver is stable, you believe it?

WHQL means dick-all unless you are a corporate system admin.
