There is no use to get this if it is meant for Mirror's Edge, unless your to lazy to install the new PhysX drivers.

In the "Recommended/Beta:" section you have to choose beta and it is the first one on the list.

I'm using 185.20 and I get 30-60fps at 1920x1200 2xAA and all settings on high with physx turned on, I'm running the latest physx driver as well.

I was getting lockups at first with the ME 1.0.1 patch fixed it.

181.20 was improvement over 180.48. Random crashes in Crysis Warhead went away with 181.20. However, I think I'll wait for the next WHQL release.
