Nvidia cards perform much worse than ATI cards for the kind of work coin generation is doing.

For a good breakdown of what rates are typical for various setups see: http://pastebin.com/AvymGnMJ (http://pastebin.com/AvymGnMJ) and https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Mining_Hardware_Comparison (https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Mining_Hardware_Comparison).

From the second link it seems a 260 should be able to pull 30-50 MH/s with the various settings listed there.

For windoze, MSI Afterburner software is a free and easy tool for overclocking the core clock and underclocking the memory clock.

Looks like core clock > 1200 and using the "-w 128 parameter" on the miner should be the sweet spot for that card.
