    What are the most up to date m11x R2 GPU drivers? It seems the R2 drivers have not been updated since last year on the alienware website. Is it ok to download drivers from the nvidia website without messing up optimus?

    You can use the drivers from Nvidia's website. I forget what driver version Nvidia added support for optimus support.

    I am using 267.77 and I think there were a few versions before this that worked without having to mod the drivers.
