Driver Install

Hi Guys,
 
I just ordered the XFX GeForce 7600GT. What is the consensus regarding Drivers? Do I load the Drivers from the CD after rebooting my system, or do I install the latest Drivers (93.71) which I just downloaded from the Nvidia website onto my Desktop?
 
Thanks,
 
Terry

    I would download the latest drivers from the NVidia website. That's what I did when I installed my 5500 OC card.

    For my 7600GT, I went to www.nvidia.com selected Graphics Driver...GeForce plus TNT2...my OS...and then the primary download site. The resulting file is called 93.71_forceware_winxpmce
     
    Look good to you Guys?

    I use the latest drivers at NVidia's web site as well.  Subsequent driver releases from NVidia will optimize the performance of the card.
