Download the GeForce 313.96 Beta driver. This is the recommended GeForce driver for the Crysis 3 Multiplayer Open Beta. It delivers a smoother gaming experience, and boosts SLI performance by up to 65%. EA’s recommended GeForce GPU for Crysis 3 is a GeForce GTX 560 or higher. For the Hi-Performance PC Specification, EA recommends GeForce GTX 680.
Other highlights include sizeable SLI and single-GPU performance gains of up to 27% in Assassin’s Creed III, 19% in Civilization V, 14% in Call of Duty: Black Ops 2, 14% in DiRT 3, 11% in Just Cause 2, 10% in Deus Ex: Human Revolution, 10% in F1 2012, and 10% in Far Cry 3.
Rounding out the release is a SLI profile for the newly released DmC: Devil May Cry, and an updated profile for the free-to-play, third-person co-op shooter, Warframe.

International version installed fine on my system (Win 7 x64), my language is set to US English.
I see they've changed the add new programs in the profiles page. Nice!

Same i had a BSOD with 310.90 and the recent Quadro that was released.
hmmm You may be on to something there, I had hard lockups with 310.90 as well in games that never did that to me before (Mass Effect 3 and Assassin's Creed Brotherhood). All good with 310.70. Will definitely wait for the next sober beta release now. lol

From what I have read from the thread the smooth vsync setting will only show up when you have SLi configured.

International version installed fine on XP, tested on Ace Combat Assault Horizon and works quite well but there is some stuttering but not tested on another driver yet, seeing how Mass Effect 3 works with this driver as 310.90 worked perfectly but has an issue with ALT - TAB as it would hang but previous drivers didn't so hope this beta solves it.

I only get a problem during installing any driver over any 310.xx driver or vice versa. Had to uninstall 310.90 first then clean them in safe mode.
Any way I found a bug, I use nvidia surround setup with 3 monitors, if I right click any program in task bar the menu will appear only in the upper left corner of the left monitor though my task bar is only in the middle monitor.

I'm pleased to report that I got the same uber smoothness feel on BF3 with these than with the 307.74 Quadro, with a few more FPS overall.
Keepers for me.
Edit : No problem either on Skyrim, DmC or Farcry 3.. Smooth and stable.

Wow, these drivers don't like Skryim on my rig. Cycles back and forth between loading screen/black screen and then hardlocks. Guess I'll revert back to xxx.70's
edit - doing it on all my games now. Lets try clean installing these things again.
update - nope, multiple clean installs and getting strange conditions I've never experienced before with any gpu drivers. Trashing these puppies.

Not sure if its something with today's GW2 patch or these drivers but performance is absolutely horrible. 20fps with 33% gpu usage in places i got 60fps with 90% usage. Going to go back to the previous set and trying again, this is nuts
Edit- Yup its the drivers. Went back to the 310.90 set and things are back to normal with 60fps and 80%+ usage. In fact the game runs even better than before with the new patch. Marking these as a crap driver

From the 310.70 driver sli compatibility bits 0x43480005
Make sure you add the .exe from the game manually.
Works fine for me.
Thanks. Never thought to check that it was using the correct executable.

I have found many games to behave the same way which is why i stuck with win 8. It really is smoother for me especially when games drop below 60fps. It's dark magic i tell you

I tested Smooth vsync and and drops my fps to 50 and not smooth at all. My refresh rate is 100Hz so it is halfing my frames. Still testing on BF3.
