    when i had the alienware m9750 the supported nvidia drivers only offered like 4 resolution choices which was a real deal-breaker for me. trying other modded drivers resulted in crashes. so i am praying that sager's official driver (the newest one) offers a bunch of resolutions to choose from, especially in sli mode.

    Great tip!

    I didn't realize that before, but just checked nVidia Control Panel and there it is. That's helpful because every driver seems to come with a new batch of crazy resolutions.

    BUT if u do make your own resolutions.
    make sure they are standard ones tht isnt offered in the CP already.

    by standards i mean 1680X1050/ 1440x900 etc etc
    if u make un heard of crazy ones like: 1234x456 etc it may crash or something :p
