    Just wanted to report that the new Nvidia 285.62 drivers seem to work much better than the newly released Dell rendition. Tested SC2 out with them in a 4v4, and it seemed to work through out the entire game without slowing to a ridiculous frame rate. Also, Minecraft functions! =p Any other feedback?

    I still preffer the 290.26, the one before yours. It gives me way more powerful to run BF 3, without lagging.

    I think it was a typo. I think he meant 280.26 as they havent released the 290 series yet.
