Leafs fan here - didn't like the mug that much but I do love Vancouver (the city) and the rest of your beautiful Province...

Couple of questions:
- Shouldn't you uninstall the old drives before installing a new version, or is that irrelevant?
- Do you see any significant improvement in SLI, or is that handled by other software/configuration?
- What do you think about third-party drives as opposed to the official nVidia drives?

Thank you so much for your posts and your excellent channel.

Thanks! Really helped me man! But I think you should use CamStudio or Hypercam to record your video. I feel like I'm kinda dizzy when I watched this. But still, Great tutorial.

Is it still important to manually uninstall the old drivers first, before installing the new Drivers? I used to do this with every video card I have ever owned? Thanks

@Jojoker12345 mbps can be be megaBYTEps, i do mean byte not bit, and obviously if they had ADSL2+ they wouldnt be getting those speeds, neighbourhood cable offers there cable services here in mildura, geelong and ballarat with speeds of 30mbit down and 2mbit up, aswell with plenty of other ISP's offering ADSL2+ over telstras installations

[sixtysento]

[Diegovdx]

Ehat is the difference of a catalyst driver and a regular radeon driver?

[fijizzle]

@nitrogif Ah, I see. With this one in particular... it's a SLI set up, with a nice CPU and running on a SSD. Still wondering what component gave him such a low score.

this is probably a stupid question but do you need a 3d tv/monitor to run games in 3d and use the 3d glasses?

Installing ATi drivers is one of the most laborious things to do ever. Nvidia is nice and easy.

[jyrba]

you should advice how to check out what GPU are you using, for the people who have problems with that.

What's this GeForce R304 Driver does it help my main graphics card?

[daveyjones]

Do you have to uninstall the old drivers because i heard that it deletes the old drivers and installs the new one.

[fuzonacid]

Isn't it recommended to unistall the old drivers before installing the new?

If you have a 9800gt where do you set the physx? gpu or cpu
