BTW, 30 fps looks low for such a GPU and Skyrim.. Am I wrong

I do get the same idle clocks as before on my 680. I guess this stuff is not that optimized for mobile GPUs - that could explain the low to inexistant gains :p
You need to install an ENB and enjoy HQ SSAO+Indirect Lightning+SkyLightning. It kills your fps as you can see, but the game looks gorgeos

And yeah I just read nvidias release notes more carwfully. Those marketing pros added in a lower section that it only counts on "high" preset and indoors... lol

AO is still as glitchy as f*** in Guild Wars 2 which is disappointing.

Of course not. But it's a downclocked 670. Same architecture.
And there is literally 0% improvement really where should be.
If I use no graphic mods I will certainly get CPU bottlenecked at some point, and I SHOULD see an improvement over the previous driver in Skyrim.
And I'm not considering that 1 alternating FPS in Savegame 3 an improvement
Yes indeed. I meant that, considering the 11% gains on GTX680 falls as low as 6% on the GTX660 (with a lower average framerate than the 680 obviously), with your ~30 fps average, you would be looking at more or less GTX660 level gains, so ~1.8 fps more. That's pretty limited anyway me thinks, and Nvidia style means *in some special cases only*.

EDIT: Oh yeah and the new idle core clock is 405 instead of 135, anyone else got this? Got no programs running in the background, killed every process apart of windows ones to test it
