67.XX drivers optimized for HL2?

Does HL2 run any faster with these betas? Found 67.02, 67.42WHQL and 67.50 at Guru3d.
Currently running 66.93 (6800GT). Noticed that 67.XX drivers were referred to as 'HL2 drivers' - any truth to that?
Thanks for all replies.
Peace.

i'm usin 67.02Beta's from nvidia site, as the drivers from guru3d.com
usually are very iffy on my system. I'm running a P4@2.53ghz 768mb of pc1066
and a Gainward Golden Sample GFX 5900 450mhz core/ 950mhz ram, playing the
game at 1024*768@32bpp with FSAA at 4x AF at 8X, Dx 8.1 ( due to the GFX Dx9
lack-of performance ) i'm gettin an avergae of 85fps indoors and outdoors,
with spikes down low as 55fps. I was using the 66.93WHQL's before, but they
gave me headaches for Lock On: Modern Air Combat. HTH !
