    Guess not much to see here. I am wondering when NVIDIA will actually fix all their issues which are adressed in their own forums.

    Hahaa! You must try desktop driver when you try RS4 RTM. You'll notice some difference. I was simply amazed when Papusan told me he never updates driver if its working fine. I found staggering difference on same 388.71 notebook and desktop drivers. I can max out anything and OC much higher w/o the driver magically downclocking the clocks. Desktop driver really works.
    Try it when you have some free time!
