    Definitely 23.12 or earlier. The new ones 27.xx and up are optimized for GF4. I think the 12.xx series had some good drivers for pre GF3 cards.

    23.12's are basically a slightest faster and less buggier version of the 23.11's. I find most people get more performance and less problems with 23.12's

    I am using the 27.42 drivers. They actually work pretty good on my GF3.
