    Hey guys, If you are a casual or hardcore gamer What drivers are you currently using for you GeForce 8600GS card? I use the 174.93 driver and the games I play are:

    - Company pf Heroes
    - Age of Empires III
    - GTR2

    I'm a casual Laptop gamer (I normally play console...PS2!) so I'd like to use the drivers that would make my playing time better, although I know that our 8600GS cards are not THAAAT good as we would like.

    So, What's ther driver you're using from laptopvideo2go that have you happy and pleased gaming?

    i use 169.04

    to me it definitely allows me to overclock for that extra bump in performance for games

    works for me with
    Crysis ~20fps @ DX9 ftw.
    COD4 ~40 fps
    NFS Carbon~40 fps
    GTA San Andreas
    Counter Strike Source
