Hi, my ASUS A8V motherboard has the KT800 pro via chipset. On the Asus web sight they have a via 4 in one driver download v4.51 dated 2005/04/08
On the VIA website they have VIA Hyperion Pro drivers, (quote) "If you are looking for VIA 4in1 drivers, these are the drivers you are looking for. The "Hyperion" name was added to the 4in1 driver set name in December 2002. "
(If they've been called Hyperion since 2002 how come Asus just keeps calling them 4in1).
Anyway right now I have the ones from the asus website installed but I really like to keep my drivers up to date, should I install from the VIA website?
 
No. I have the same chipset on my ecs board, and didn't notice any difference in performance. I use only the driver on the manufacturer's website. If your board is working well, skip the hyperion drivers.
