For those of you like me who have Nvidia cards, I'd suggest trying the latest beta drivers for it. You can get yours here - NVIDIA Driver Downloads - Advanced Search (http://www.nvidia.com/Download/Find.aspx?lang=en-us) . I tried the 285.27 drivers last night and saw a significant increase in frame rate on both F1 2010 and even RBR had an increase.

Hey Bruce, can you alt+tab out of the program. I like to do that when using setups from Race Department.

The 285.27 drivers were made for the Battlefield 3 beta, but I rolled back to 270.XX when I thought I could no longer tab out of the program. Maybe I was on the wrong screen. I know there are some where you cant tab out at all.

OOPS! Wrong drivers. The ones I was talking about are the 285.38 drivers for the BF3 beta.

Haven't checked those ones yet. Just got my paws on a GTX 260 the other day (given to me for free too!) so I haven't had a chance to really try them with the new graphics drivers.

I have the same card and you'll enjoy it! I'm running at 1980x1200 with most things on High and 8xMSAA. Averaging around 70fps.

And I can tab out with the 285.38 drivers, yay!!

I cleared out some friends after I got tired of 2010. Add me back, bblocker68.

Yeah I'm liking the new card. Not huge difference in places, except strangely for COD4 where there is a MASSIVE difference! F1 2011 runs nice, but unfortunately don't have internet at home anymore.
