    Hey guys,

    So I just got the new m17x R2 as a replacement for my old m17x.
    I became pretty familiar with how to optimize my 280s to improve 3D mark scores on my old machine..ie turning off background programs, disabling hybrid SLI, disabling phys x...this would give me a 3D mark 06 score of about 13900 on my dual 280s without overclocking.

    Just wondering if theres anything I can do to boost(without overclocking) my 4870s, what are the best drivers, catalyst settings etc. Because as it stands its 3D marking(06) @ around 13100.

    thanks in advance =)
