    Is there any kind of "subscription" for NVIDIA drivers?

    Is there any way I can receive an email from NVIDIA whenever they release new drivers or anything like that?

    It'd just make it so much easier when trying to stay on top of driver updates and such.

    I know Vista and Windows 7 will do these through Windows Update. At first I installed them manually but these days if I need them I will use them through Windows Update and that way if anything goes wrong I can roll back to a restore point it makes before installing the driver.

    As for a subscription. The only way I have seen is to sign up to their newsletter and the odd time it will mention new drivers. In the majority though the newsletters are useless.

    Not that i know of, maybe theres a tech website which you can sign up too and get RSS updates when you use your browser ?
    Kalniel: "Nice review Tarinder - would it be possible to get a picture of the case when the components are installed (with the side off obviously)?"
    CAT-THE-FIFTH: "The Antec 300 is a case which has an understated and clean appearance which many people like. Not everyone is into e-peen looking computers which look like a cross between the imagination of a hyperactive 10 year old and a Frog."
    TKPeters: "Off to AVForum better Deal - £20+Vat for Free Shipping @ Scan"
    for all intents it seems to be the same card minus some gays name on it and a shielded cover ? with OEM added to it - GoNz0.

    I use the Win 7 Windows update sometimes find they are not always the most recent, but they are the most recent ones tested for win 7. They are also smaller downloads as they don't come with the Nvidia control panel every time.

    The Windows Update way isn't really what I'm looking for though, it's horrible. And it's usually out of date by about 2 or 3 weeks anyway, so by then I'm usually on the latest anyway.
