Absolute Multimedia Outrageous GeForce 2 GTS- Drivers

As we have seen many times in the past, the Absolute Multimedia Outrageous GeForce 2 GTS utilizes NVIDIA's reference drivers as the shipping drivers.

For example, when compared to the Creative Labs 3D Blaster Annihilator 2, the driver choices with the Outrageous GeForce 2 GTS seem poor.
