scared to install until more opinions posted-they got me before-whql has showed dislike for the 570 in the past or if you will "my" 570 has shown dislike for whql.
Don't forget to wear a foil on your head and equip yourself with hoe

These drivers are freaking fantastic! Especially for Watch Dogs. They are the best performance drivers for that game by far..

I've got GTX760 plugged to my samsung 4k hdtv running 4k 60Hz at 4.2.0 chroma and guess what? After installing 344.11 I get blank screen with message "Not supported resolution", now GTX760 can run 4k only 30Hz, it's kinda sad or something. Rolled back to 340.52. Great experience Nvidia, thanks...

Holy crap. Arkham City now actually runs without massive stuttering in DX11. Framerates still suck, but at least there aren't any stuttering anymore.

What exactly are you runnin' in 4K with a 760? BTW this is updated driver for DR3. If the game ain't working it ain't a Card company's fault. Look to the developer for your answers, not Nvidia.
What game? Ain't talk about games, just cant run 4k 60hz resolution at all on 344.11 driver

Can anyone test SLI performance on 700 series. After benchmarking 3DMark and Metro it looks like I'm scoring noticeably lower with these vs 340.52 and gang.
