    I ran 3Dmark06 and 3DVantage. Why do the resuls say I have a GTX 170M instead of a GTX 260M?

    The prototype names were the 100 series, mine is also called the 180M. Nvidia changed the name to 200's for marketing reasons...

    most programs have not properly been updated to recognize the names of the latest mobile videocards.

    even latest drivers haven't either.
