Over the weekend some news broke that Nvidia has added telemetry logging into it's driver. We know that GeForce Experience already is collecting users, hardware and game data, but new to us is that they enabled it directly into their drivers now as well.
NVIDIA just released GeForce 306.97 WHQL 32/64-bit drivers which you can grab here at Guru3D.com This file has just been released and as such release information as such is still missing. The WHQL driver is intended for all known GeForce graphics cards though.
You can now Download nVIDIA PhysX System Software 9.12.0807. This new update Supports NVIDIA PhysX acceleration on all GeForce 8-series, 9-series, 100-series, 200-series, 300-series, 400-series, 500-series, and 600-series GPUs with a minimum of 256MB dedicated graphics memory

The Secret World is the first game to support TXAA (support will be enabled in an upcoming patch). TXAA is supported on GeForce GTX 600-series Kepler-based GPUs.
