Oh nice. Seems to also come with a new version of PhysX. Also, at the site searching for any 6/7 series card does not show these drivers so I guess they did pull DX9 card support. Not sure how true that is, maybe the inf can be modded to support them or maybe it already does.
EDIT: Yeah looks like the INF by default supports "only" back to the 8k series.

That is good. The more old hardware support that is dropped, the better support for current hardware.

6% increase in Arkham City will probably translate to at least around 6% boost in BL2.

On the plus side, you have a month before the game comes out on PC, I would say a new profile should be available by then.

Is this with the benchmark or gameplay? How is your framerate when gliding around the city?

Does the game run smoother though? Is the outside gliding stutter fixed?

Bottlenecked on an i7 980x??? I hardly think so, not even at stock. Not with Skyrim.
GW2 Id say yes, even with one GPU you need to OC your CPU.

Are you kidding me? 6x3,33 Ghz don't bottleneck a mobile GPU, even if the game uses only 2 cores
Also, I run enough graphic enhancing mods (for textures, lightning and ENB) to get GPU dependent.

@Geralt
I did not play the game. The bench still had a couple stutters - at the end of the spark showers and the end of the ice attack scenes. I suspect the game still suffers at times.
