But still I had seen nothing regarding the release. Just thought I would attempt to be of help...

is there a program that can tell me when a new nvidia driver update is out like a RSS feed or e-mail alert

Or you could even be more up-to-date at: http://download.guru3d.com/detonator/

The latest WHQL driver is version 78.01 at their site.

I was under the impression that early releases there were essentially "betas".

WHQL means: Windows Hardware Quality Labs.

So a WHQL certified driver isn't beta.

Right now the 78.11 is beta.

Ahh... I understand now. :) However it is somewhat alluding in that nVidia's official website is displaying an older version. That part makes very little sense to me. :huh:

Of course these drivers are WHQL certified yet to be considered beta.

Actually, I was browsing through nVidia's new 6000 series products. I believe I was eyeing a 6600 256MB AGP if correct. Any opinions or thoughts in regards to the 5000 series versus purchasing any of the 6000?
