I have not, but I will install it when I get home, maybe my 8800GTX will start working again.

Just installed them. Going to reboot and see how they work. Thanks for the heads up. I didn't even know these had been released, and I did a check for beta drivers this morning.

Seem a better set than the 185's so far, right clicking the desktop is now instantaneous, as is with opening the nvcp, not tried any performance tests as yet.

I like that you can do OCing from within the NVCP now. Also, it now includes the ability to set up the Nvidia 3D...assuming you have the glasses and IR transmitter ($199, really?)

For me it feels like that in some games the ALT+TAB Switching function to desktop is slowed down somehow. But it is the same in Build 7100... i think its the driver

I still continue to crash with my 8800GTX, will have to wait for an official driver release. 8800GTS is running fine and everything seems to run alot smoother. I can now run 15 poker windows without any screen flashes.
