Those new forceware drivers are AWESOME.

I went from 9689 in 3DMark06 to 10210!

Also, say goodbye to flickering textures in BF2142.

There were new Nvidia Vista drivers for 6/7/8 cards released as well. I think they were beta, but they're somewhere on the Nvidia website. They fucked my framerate in CS:S. Went from 100~ to 70~. They changed the installation routine, and maybe I did it wrong.

I switched to the "leaked" drivers that came out the same day and it improved performance.

Looks like ATI still won't be providing Mobility drivers, so for laptops with Vista, I guess we'll be waiting for the Omega drivers to come out, hopefully later this month.
