    Well I know this may not apply to the M17x, but I put these drivers in my MacBook Pro 17" (8600M GT) and it imporved my Windows Experience Index by .1 (5.5->5.6 laughable I know). I am running Windows 7 RC (7201).

    I don't have space to install any benchmark apps. But I thought it might still be useful to know.
