    I Run some tests with couple drivers

    I use 3dmark06 Pro with all updates

    186.18 = 12804 - Minor Slow on Crysis and Bug with Dirt 2 game crash to desktop after begin race

    186.91 = 12755 - Minor Slow on Crysis and Bug with Dirt 2 MS8x or more game crash to desktop

    188.22 = 12661 - Fine on all games no gain but no lost performance all games running smoth

    188.25 = 12812 - Major Boost on all Games *.* Incredible Performance Gain... Best i ever seen Fallout 3 smoth no glitch and shutter

    195.81 = 12858 - Major slows on Crysis... Work normale on Dirt 2 Huge slows on Batman with physx high major slows on Fallout 3

    188.25 best driver i ever seen lol

    Elaborate please, the 3DMark Score doesn't tell much about it.
    Whats the minimum fps difference with 1920x1080 AAx4 AFx16 with and without V-Sync on different games as example?
    Those 3 words your using kinda make it sound like you got a new graphic card :)

    Fantastic drivers... all games work as they should , alt tabbing works , frame rates are good across the board.

    Nice

    And yet you didn't show some statistics proofing your statement.

    I tried them yesterday and I am going to keep them.
    In Far Cry 2 benchmark I got this:

    NVIDIA 195.62 average FPS 53.x

    NVIDIA 188.25 avarage FPS 72.x

    The game settings were identical.

    I also noticed that drivers without "Power management" option in NVCP give me better and smoother performance than any 19x.xx drivers.

    I've never liked that " power management " option , causes more problems than it's worth !

    haven't tested this for games yet, but my 3dmark06 score is similar to 190.62.

    I should also note that I can no longer tell gpu temps with these. Running win 7 x64 gtx 275
