  It might be a little confusing to mention the "series 6 and on", and then later mention WDDM 1.2 support for "the 400 series and later". Had to re-read the paragraph twice to sort out that "series 6 and on" refers to the ancient 6600, 6800 etc. My first reaction was kinda "WTF, what about my (not brand new but quite recent) GTX580?" =/

  Ancient in computer terms, but not that long ago. I remember when the Geforce 2 GTS was the new kid on the block. Before that you wanted a Voodoo 3 ;)

  I believe the first AT review I ever read was for the GeForce 256 DDR. A friend of mine turned me on to it and I've been a believer ever since!

  Turned me on to AT, that is... and I'm still turned on.

  I'm really surprised to see windows 8 support for geforce 6 and 7. Thought windows 7 drivers would be the last for those old dogs.

  nVidia's always been pretty good about pushing out support for its older video cards in new OS's. Motherboards... not as much.

  Still waiting for the ATI notebook driver.

  I bet nVidia is really happy with that big blank "ad" in between the two amd pics on the GPU tab to get here.
  I have never seen that here before. I guess nVidia really, really, is in the doghouse now.
  
  On an up note all the amd fan boys should be gleeful, despite the fact that amd abandons gamers in the driver department.
