Unhappy Laptop Geforce 8600M GT card users - What graphics driver do you use?

Hey guys,

I'm posting because I'm having issues with Nvidia drivers. I experience graphics stuttering even when my FPS is 60+ and my thermals are just fine. When I enter a dungeon, my FPS drops to a puny 27. I have had to go through uninstalls/driver sweeps and installs of new drivers 3 times but with no luck.

The driver versions I've used from laptopvideo2go are:

179.28

185.2

I'm playing on a Dell Vostro 1500 I bought over a year ago.

For the 8600M GT card users, could you please post what driver version you use and any bugs you experience? Thanks!!!

i have the same card, im always max at 60 everywhere(on highest quality) except kamadan where it may drop a little. I use the newest drivers and dont have any problems, your problem may not be your graphics card but mabey your processor.

for what it's worth I have a 8600 GTS on the desktop I play GW with and my FPS stays steady at 60, except Kamadan, where it may drop to the low 50s....
