Download GeForce 310.70 WHQL Candidate Driver

Download GeForce 310.70 WHQL Candidate Driver

GeForce 310.70 drivers are now available to download. The culmination of our recent beta releases, these WHQL-candidate drivers improve performance by up to 37% in the year's most popular games, add TXAA support to Call of Duty: Black Ops II and Assassin's Creed III, make Sparse Grid Supersampling easier to use, get your system ready for the latest releases, including Far Cry 3, Hitman: Absolution and Planetside 2, and resolve key issues, like shadow flickering in Assassin's Creed III.

In October's GeForce 310.33 beta driver we improved performance by up to 15% in nine games, and this time we’re improving performance by up to 37% in twenty-one games. Leading the charge in 310.70 is a 37% boost for Far Cry 3, followed by a 26% boost for Call of Duty: Black Ops II, an 18% boost for The Chronicles of Riddick: Assault on Dark Athena, a 17% boost for Assassin’s Creed III, and a 12% boost for Battlefield 3.

Please note that performance improvements benefit all GeForce GTX graphics cards, though obviously to varying degrees. We would of course love to show how our optimizations benefit the entire range of GeForce GTX GPUs, but sadly this is unfeasible given the number of benchmarks required. For example, for each GPU and game you test include a before and after benchmark to show the level of improvement, then multiply the number of tests by the number of resolutions, three, and then again by the number of different detail levels and anti-aliasing modes tested. Then, finally, to verify the results, run everything again to ensure there were no anomalies. With so many GPUs in our lineup, even focusing exclusively on the most popular models would prove impossible in the time between a driver being finalized, and released.

Download and we have a discussion thread open on these drivers right here.

Hi AndyB.

Do these drivers fix the intermittent crash people are experiencing within Battlefield 3 ?

Yes. Read the release notes.


I have and there is no mention of it being fixed. I remember ManuelG saying that they would try and get it into the next whql driver set so it's a valid question ;)

There are also changes for Far Cry 3 according to GeForce.com and the release notes. (Likely just an updated SLI profile)

Wrong. Previous driver didn't have correct profile.

We will be releasing an updated driver/SLI profile for Far Cry 3 shortly
