    You forgot to add this: )
    It's not a new official nvidia driver, and may only work really good for Asus and HP.
    It will work on other notebooks as well, but may lack some features because it's optimized for asus and hp

    I'm still waiting for a 170.xx series driver ;)

    Currently using Omega driver 169.25

    I just updated my HP Pavillion dv6663ca with this. Even though I lost my previous resolution (1280x768) through the INF, the frame rate is silky smooth with practically everything I use! No more graphical artifacts either.

    Even if they are only for asus, they support the new 8800m cards so seems like a good reason to use them, at least for me.
