    Hello guys, maybe you can help me? I am using a i7 720 @ 1.6GHz, gtx260m and 4gb DDR3 RAM. What is in your experience the best driver for the GPU? By best I am talking about most FPS

    Cheers

    As has been said, 186.81, straight from Nvidia, is also my recommendation.

    I have tested many different drivers but only 186.81 gives the best performance and stability.
