i was actually meaning the 6800 ULTRA drivers..

have you tried using these?with your 6800 (NON ULTRA)

what problems did you have with the 8040's???

this card overclocks like a dream.. managed a whoping 4930 in 3dmark05 and 3 days stable gaming.. clock speeds 370/740.. temps maxed at 65 at these speeds.. only 2 degrees more than at 330/660 which is what it runs at now..

Im running the Dell drivers at present and no problems i have tried the 80.40's amung others the extreme G .And to be honest for a couple points differents in 05 benchmarks.I would rather not have the bugs for me they run great.I honestly think some of the 3rd party drivers do get a little higher benchmarks.But find a lot of them are buggy in gaming.So as for me i will stick with the stable dell drivers which i feel perform better in gaming rather then benchmarks.

Ther driver is the same regardless of whether you use it on a 6800 or 6800ultra. I had all kinds of problems with the 80.40 so i just decided to go back to 77.24. Alot of people are using 77.76 with no problems but like the earlier poster, it's not worth the 20 or so jump on 3dmark05.
