    Hey guys, just got my m11xr2 i7, 8gb ram, 500gb sata on wed and ive been enjoying it after i adapted to the smaller screen. The only drivers i downloaded were the newest nvidia (266 i think) from their website and thats it. What other drivers are necesary for download to increase performance on this thing. I havent bothered overclocking yet either because i enjoy it were its at, 27fps on bc2 seems good enough to me lol. Btw how well does this comp perform on shogun 2? Im downloading the demo now and got high hopes for at least medium settings.
