I love this os so much, I'm going to reinstall it. But just a heads up to the developer.

I hope this comes to full non beta version.
Tnank you for reporting. Nvidia proprietery drivers are not perfect.
How did you installed it? Did you remove any drivers before installation or upgrade kernel?
I can not say that proprietary driver works better on my laptop with GeForce 8400. The only one reason I do installation is a problem with video chip overheating with a build-on linux driver. So if conky shows a normal temperature of you CPU (up to 75), maybe you don't need to change the driver.
You can also try nouveau driver with your card.
