FILES - DRIVERS

I'm currently looking over the whole files/driver section and will hopefully have it updated soon again.

Choose the type of drivers/bios you are looking for. Remember that while reference-drivers might work with your card the drivers that should work the best are drivers directly from your card-vendor.
