I am scratching my head at that BmR driver comparo. After all the testing I have done on the platforms, I have not seen those kinds of drops.

Well, I can't explain why you're not seeing the difference... but suffice it to say that NVIDIA recognized it and pulled the driver.

Interesting. Well, could be a platform-specific issue then.

Edit: the 175.19 drivers seem to still be on the Nvidia site.
