mainly on the desktop things were a bit slow. especially when I right-clicked on the desktop and it took almost a minute for the menu to show. Then it took nearly as long if not longer for the Nvidia control panel to show. Enabling/disabling SLI took even longer. The 186 beta and this new set of fixed the issue so I'm happy.
