    Just an idea, but is it safe or even possible to install either Dox or forceware Nvidia drivers onto the R2? Would they likely provide more power or stability? Are they Optimus compatible?

    Uhm no. The latest driver Dox released was well before Optimus. So not until Dox releases new drivers. :D

    FYI, Doxs driver is primarily just a standard nvidia driver with performance tweaks added.

    Forceware is just the old name given to standard Nvidia drivers.
