If the 66.93 work the best for you, I would try the 66.97 DHZeropoint best drivers I have found yet. Can be found near the top of this page.

Give the xtreme G drivers a try or perhaps the official 7180's? I have no experience with Soldner so I can't really say, except did you try turning off AA in the CP? It's on by default which may give you an fps hit as well as txt issues in some games....

How's the IQ? if your fps are the same, is the IQ better? That's what the DHzer0points are about increasing IQ without so much of a loss of performance, if you game performs the same but looks better then, so much the better right? otherwise for a performance set try the xtreme g but Image quality degrades from quality to performance...

i don't want to sound horrible but u shouldn't be expecting much from your video card,u can try hundreds of diferent drivers that u won't see much diference..the best that u can do is to slowly overclock ur video card.
