Well, I haven't noticed much of a difference since 2176. All issues I had, sound, scsi card, were all fixed in prior builds, so I can't realy tell you what the major improvements are. From what I'm aware, it's only small bug fixes, no new drivers or features.
I just installed RC3 and yes the MX300 drivers seem to be working with SMP!
I agree with Apoptosis, just 3 minutes ago i found out one of the major fixes in RC3 is that the MX300 drivers finally do work with SMP now and pre RC3 builds didnt have this support, the same was supposed to be for direct3d, but this hasn't been confirmed anywhere, guess im going to have to keep testing. also RC3 is the first release candidate needing a key.
the RC3 DDK has been released for free download, emailing your hardware company to get them would not be a bad idea since you want 2000 support for your hardware.
