Which nvidia chipset drivers are newer?

Is it the ver 2.41 drivers on the gigabyte site or the ver 3.13 drivers from
the nvidia site? Can't find the release date for the gigabyte drivers.

TIA

You're kidding right? Any drivers at the nVidia site would definitely be the
latest. However, the latest drivers aren't always the best. Sometimes, new
video drivers cause headaches not present in the older drivers.

Actually, I'm not. If Gigabyte, enhanced or tweaked the nVidia drivers,
they would be newer. That's why I asked about the release date. Perhaps
should have explained that I'm new to the nForce chipsets having been a Via
guy that last several years, thus not acquainted with the numbering
conventions.

I don't believe that Gigabyte enhances anything. I think they simply provide
a central hub for the files that are for your hardware that came with your
motherboard.

Ok....thanks. After getting up this morning with a cleared brain I see that
the older nVidia drivers are 2.41s as well. Thanks.
