My XPS 2 is in boxing and hopfully it will ship very soon.
When I get it I plan to reinstall right off the bat. Should I just usethe drivers from nvidia's website fot the video drivers or should i use omega's drivers?

I got mine on Tuesday and had a new drive in and a fresh install of Windows by Tuesday night. I have installed anti-virus and some of the dell crap including the quickset. I installed the Dell 77.24 driver and I'm not over clocking anything for now. My system has the 2.13 cpu and 2 gigs mem. I scored a 52xx on the 3dmark05 test. I'm happy with that and my system runs great so far.

The latest ultra driver from Dell is actually pretty decent. It still won't let you overclock but I've gotten 5308 3dmark05 by just disabling V-SYNCH, performance slider all the way to the left, and temporarily disabling wireless and all the Norton/McAfee crap.

I got my lappy on tuesday the 12th and i ordered it on the 4th, fast turn around eh. Anyway i love it. Due to me screwing up some ish when i first started tweakin it, i did a clean install and the Dell drivers are pretty nice. Time to benchmark this bad boy and tweak it some more. Later.
