    First I'd like to thank Big Sam for this driver. I have it installed & its working perfectly. My 3DMark06 scores are around the same as my previous system, but I do understand that benchmarking will not be a strong point for a modified driver. All I want is good fps in games for now, and thats what I'm getting.

    noobzed,

    I had same problem using the asus flex bridge. Try flipping it, solved the problem for me

    Anyone try these on an ASUS P5B Deluxe yet?

    As far as your 3DMark scores go, I'm experiencing the same thing. Futuremark seems to be really finicky when it comes to the drivers that are being used...either that or we may be doing something wrong. SLI is definitely working in regular games though.

    What SLI Bridge are you using? Couldn't hurt to try flipping it if its the asus flexbridge like mine
