   What I'm wondering is if the 'Cat 4.8' drivers really boost performance in the older generation cards, or just the X800 series...

   Keep trying, Nvidia. No, really. Hot vendor rivalries = consumer paradise. Try you damnedest to get your crown back. Everybody wins. Well, maybe *you* don't, exactly, but the rest of us sure as hell do. lol.
