While the mobile arena hasn't seen an update since Jan 2008. So much for the mobile chips to get updates every quarter Nvidia promised.

They only release drivers to sell new cards. I doubt very much there are any optimizations for the 8 series, and none probably for anything older.

Marketing at it's best. Come buy our new $650 card! See, we even release drivers for it to make it faster!

Yah right.
