You know, every single time I've tried out a "Beta" driver there's always been a few games that it will just crash without fail...
Yea, it will work great for a handful of games, but the rest will have bad problems or just crash...

Exactly as he said. The official betas are not necessary the same as leaked betas. (Actually, consider leaked betas to be closer to alpha quality).

That's what I was referring to...The beta's you download from the Nvidia site... nZone - NVIDIA Beta Drivers - Download Beta Drivers

Not Omega, or modified drivers that someone else has posted at say Guru3D.
Even still, the official beta drivers crash games and have problems...That's why I wait for the official release before trying it out. That way they have time to fix the problems before it's released...
They don't call them "Beta" for nothing...

Yea I've found alot of official Nvidia drivers to be less stable than betas.

Recently they fubared up the Linux drivers for a period of time which ruined some WoW arena =(

Yea, I've found this to be true over the years with both Nvidia & ATi drivers...there will be good and bad ones.
That's why when I do get a good one I hold on to it...
