New video card question
Hello all,

I have the chance to upgrade my GTX470 to a GTX570 in a few days.
I am running 3d vision with my Optoma HD66 using the Acer edid hack. Its worked fine with no issues whatsoever for 4 months.
So my question is related to exactly what my best option is for new drivers.
Should I only install the Geforce drivers for the 570 and leave the 3d Vision drivers alone? Or should I go ahead and
update everything?
I just want to make sure I dont hose the 3d or do something that renderd the Acer inf to no longer work.

Thanks alot, Danny

I will suggest to update both GPU and 3D vision drivers: updating both are required to make sure that we can play the new games without having issues: I am not sure what EDID hack is, but you can run the hack again if updating the drivers creates any issue:
