NVIDIA release 163.71 ForceWare beta display driver

Monday 24th September 2007, 01:01:00 PM, written by Rys

Are you a fan of PT Boats: Knights of the Sea, or Team Fortress 2? Does the PC you play said games on sport an NVIDIA graphics chip? If both conditions evaluate to true, you might fancy taking a look at 163.71.

Hot on the heels of 163.69, 163.71 adds better support for Team Fortress 2 -- a game that's so much fun I literally exploded with joy playing it at the weekend -- with SLI, and improved compatibility for PT Boats.

Since it's The Internet Way to come up with amusing arbitrary codenames for software releases, we're naming 163.71, "The Rusty Sheriff's Badge". Tell your friends.

You can get the driver for Windows Vista and Windows XP flavours this time around, too. Links follow, let us know how you get on in the forums.
