BF3 Armored Kill 64player ran smoother (less streaming stutter) with 306.23., 305.67 was better too.
Edit: its a little better without antialiasing - less hickups (vram ~1180mb), i play with 2xaa (~ 1240-1260mb).
For example Doom3 with extra mods, 2xaa was maxing out vram 1270-1275mb and didnt stutter when i entered new rooms.

Put in a lot of time in Borderlands 2 with these, running +180 core, +400 ram, +132%
No crashes, seems to have fixed the instability the 306.23s caused.

There is a issue with AVP2010, dx11, 2xaa, max settings, no dx11 softshadows, ingame 1xaf, in driver 16xaf.
I've seen this bug in few drivers, so i can't really tell when it started or if its a game bug

And this just started happening with 306.63, texture mesh gets dark at certain angle

Downgraded back to WHQL.
I was getting stuttering in BF3 after the PC had been on for a long time.

What makes u think this was the drivers? Applications, hell even Windows can have memory leaks....
I dont believe the driver is at fault here.

I don't know whats up with these but they don't respect my settings in MSI Afterburner. I have my fan "step up" in increments of 15. So if my graphics card is at 50º then my fan would be @ 65%, 60º and 75% and so on.
My card is sitting @ 30º with the fan running @ 52%. If I was playing something demanding, and my card got up to 70º my fan speed would still be at 52%. It just doesn't seem to be changing.
It's as if MSI Afterburner can't change the fan speed anymore. Yes I'm on the latest 2.24. Just my 2 cents, if it works for other people it must be an isolated incident on my side.
** Edit : Apparently after updating MSI AB a couple of the settings defaulted or something. All seems well now :\

Thanks for the heads up.

Unnestable drivers, getting black screen freeze on some games and on desktop with the screen powersaver.
Back to whlq.

From Nvidias point of view: not recommended.
From my point of view: just try.

After a couple of hours in GW2, it kind of disabled my Aero stuff in W7 Pro.
After checking process manager, GW2 at that time was using 1.5Gb of memory.
No idea how much video memory was in use however as I forgot to check that.
First time this has happened to me with GW2 so not sure if it's this driver or something else but it hasn't happened before.
Dunno if it was because I did several places that day or because of going through a dungeon and loading more textures than on average.
Or was it caused by GW2's latest patch... who knows.
Just figured I'd share.

What do you mean, "it kind of disabled my Aero stuff"?
Ziggieke
Well, my start menu/task bar went from having the glass aero look with a colour to being the grey plain bar you have in Windows XP.
Hovering over applications running at that time - GW2 and Ventrilo, normally displays them in a nice little window type preview, also no longer worked.
From what I understand, this is the Aero desktop functionality in W7 no longer working at that point.

While playing your computer "upgraded" your OS to Windows 8. Congratz!
Ziggieke
woot, and for free too ;-)

Windows 8 has the screen previews of stuff in the taskbar, so it couldn't be that.

odd but these drivers crash my system fully seems they ain't stable with Sleeping Dogs ... same issue rises with crysis 2

Try to raise your gpu voltage for 1 steep (6 or 12mv) and double check your cpu/ram overclock.
Some drivers are more sensitive to system and gpu OC, especially this r304 branch. 🙂

Im having problems with these, and the previous driver, sli 670,s , not overclocked.
Ive had the display driver stopped responding on the windows 7 desktop, can be fine for 8 or 9 hours, then 2 or 3 driver stops in 1 minute, its weird.
Im using display port as well.

I'm truly asking myself when i'm gonna be able to play Darksiders 2 smoothly without relying on third party tool like Msi afterburner.....
Hope the next drivers fix this mess... not to mention the unfixed vsync problem on windows 8....
