Hello, Bearcat
This is centered on PC issues so I moved your topic from the IL-2 Technical Help Topic to this PC Technical Help Topic.
At least an occasional period of stuttering happens with every 9800GT.
Which driver to use is really a matter of trial and error with IL-2, since there are so many factors which effect graphics. Even the same model graphics card of two people could get different results with various graphics setttings. Also, a model of graphics card can be changed a small amount with time as the manufacturer tries to make improvements. A 9800GT late model might have a significant difference over one of them in the first production run. Some users say that the best drivers for IL-2 are those from about 2008-2009, but you'll have to roll through a few to find the exact match for you.
Guys in my online squadron who have run the 9800GT have said that they run IL-2 with OpenGL and Perfect Water, though other settings might need to be reduced to get Perfect Water.
Here is the link to my tech help topic about the relationship of the computer and software to IL-2, which includes the settings which you will need to try:
