I downloaded the newest Nvidia Beta Drivers and copied it over to /usr/portage/distfiles under the same name the in-portage driver had. So while portage thinks the old drivers are installed - that's not the case :) It worked flawlessly and the new drivers gave me quite a performance boost on my GeForce7400 Go! :) So it might be worth it giving it a try...
