GeForce 310.54 Beta Driver Download



Download the NVIDIA GeForce 310.54 Beta 32/64-bit driver
This download driver release is the recommended driver for the best experience in Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 and Assassin's Creed III, providing up to 26% faster performance in Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 and up to 18% faster performance in Assassin’s Creed III.
Today’s driver also adds a new and improved version of TXAA anti-aliasing to Call of Duty: Black Ops 2 and Assassin’s Creed III, allowing GTX 600 Series users to maximize image quality and eliminate unsightly temporal aliasing in two of the year’s most popular games. Furthermore, there’s a handy new Sparse Grid Supersampling feature for all GeForce GTX users that improves image quality when using the advanced anti-aliasing technique, and for SLI users there are new Hawken, Hitman: Absolution, Natural Selection 2 and Primal Carnage profiles.
We have a discussion thread open on these drivers right here.

Hopefully these will install on Windows 8 without causing the dark grey screen (of death) issue I had with v310.33... though I did eventually get them to install after taking precautions to make sure I could recover my system if it happened again. I know NVIDIA were able to duplicate this issue but has the cause actually being identified?

From other reports now, I think we've got some confirmed games with stuttery performance..
Just cause 2, Borderlands 2, Medal of Honor Warfighter.
Anyone try BF3 with these yet?

So both Assassin's Creed III and COD: Black Op II support TXAA, that oft promoted feature from back when the GTX 680 was released in March 2012 that has only seen the light of daylight in ONE solitary game so far, and one that didn't interest me at all (some MMORPG or other that I forget the name of now...).

Well same crappy performance as 310.33 here. Nvidia claims performance improvements but i can only see performance decrease. And just cause 2 stutters with these.
