For me, GTX260 owner, 305.68 (mod .inf) has same performance as 304.79 BETA in Sleeping Dogs. MechWarrior Online with 305.68 performs much smoother, without strange lags but with the same amount of FPS. I think i kinda like this new ones...will see how it goes with new "non-660Ti-only" WHQL's when they come

copy the inf info from the 305.67 driver for your card and copy it to the inf of the 305.68.

you have 4 lines to add.

This driver is working fine on my end. I copied the .inf that Tj provided in post #2 and replaces the one that comes with these drivers with it.

Hi
I installed this driver (with moddef.inf) , seems to work fine.
But in Darksiders 2 , just one of my gpu (sli of 580) work (monitored with MSI AB).
It seems that 305.68 have a sli profile for darksiders 2.
The game runs very well with one GPU but just curious why the SLI doesn't work with this game ?

edit : ok shame on me !
just forgot to activate sli optimisation perfomance in nvidia control panel !
works great now

.68s are solid drivers for my 570gtx sli. Updated from 301.40s. Benchmark-Performance (heaven) is the same, but drivers are feeling a bit more fluent.
Especially sleeping dogs with 3dvision runs perfect now (but needs modified SLI-compatibility-bits!)
No problems with D3 by the way.

Keepers for now!
I hope there will be some WHQLs for all GPUs, so the modded inf isn't nessecary. Btw. the modded inf from post#3 works great. Thanks for that!

Hi, I have the same psu as you, and I pretending to buy a gtx 670, but I 'm afraid that my psu will not provide sufficient (watts/amps) for the card. what do you think? is it safe ?
