    Now that quite a few people have received their laptops (hopefully the people waiting will receive theirs soon), i was wondering what drivers you guys are using for your GPU's.

    Of course there is the drivers on the dell support website, but i was just wondering if anyone has tried, and found a significant increase in performance in using unofficial or third party drivers.

    Please share your findings.

    I'm using 163.16 right now but I haven't run any games yet so I don't know about performance increases with it >.>
