Grab them now!!

Congrats Nvidia Card owners, I hope ATi will do something about the performance problems as well. Let us know if there's any improvement.

it can simply be a communication trick . with nothing real toward GTAIV in it... knowning NV , it wouldnt surprise me.

"nv recommend to use drivers xxx.xx..." doesn't means "nv declare +15% perfs on GTA4 ...
