Hi I'm upgrading my graphics card from a 7600gt to a EVGA 7950GX2 monster but I want to know where to get the best drivers to be able to use the full speed of this card as i heard online reviews that you may need special drivers. Also this card suppost to run on a single PCIE socket so my question is will this card run on my ASUS M2N-MX SE motherboard?

Thanks guys,


Lew

EVGA 7950GX2 will run on your M2N-MX SE since it has a single 16x PCI port.
If your using XP i reccomend using the 169.21 forceware:
x86 - http://us.download.nvidia.com/Windows/169.21/169.21_forceware_winxp_32bit_english_whql.exe
x64 - http://us.download.nvidia.com/Windows/169.21/169.21_forceware_winxp_64bit_english_whql.exe
Or if you're using Vista i reccomend the 169.25 forceware:
x86 - http://us.download.nvidia.com/Windows/169.25/169.25_forceware_winvista_32bit_english_whql.exe
x64 - http://us.download.nvidia.com/Windows/169.25/169.25_forceware_winvista_64bit_english_whql.exe
I hope all goes well for you but i would advise using 8xxx series since they have come down in price with the release of the 9600GS and 9800GX2.
