    I have tried several drivers, so far 169.09 are working OK. What is considered to be the best driver for this game?

    Also, does this game have some sort of a built in fraps type of option, if so, what is the trick to enabling it.

    Thanks.

    I haven't tried GOW yet but looking to install it soon .

    Already installed COD4 and I get good fps as well but with noticable stutter/lag when strafing which didn't happen with my "old" 6800 geforce .

    Hopefully Nvidia will sort it out soon .
