Thanks

I'm currently running the v175.16 driver without any ill effects... However, I did run v174.74 previously which screwed up some OpenGL programs I use so I reverted back to v169.44 for a time.
The newest drivers are always "beta" it seems so it's "use at your own risk" with them. As fast as video technology is moving, I can understand why most drivers never get labeled as "production" nowadays...
My suggestion is to give the newer drivers a shot but be prepared to unload them if they don't work...
