    Yeah you can disable boost with KBT, i never got any extra head room by disabling it, so doesnt matter either way.

    @Hi crysis, I noticed that the GTX770M wasn't in the .inf file.

    Would it be possible to add it to the .inf file.

    I have installed your cert already and have tried to mod the inf myself but failed to get it working.

    GTX 770M (PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_11E0&SUBSYS_10E81462) Section=Section120

    Thanks in advance

    Weird, with these drivers my card wont downclock to idle on 120hz 1440P monitor. Before, they always ran at idle clocks regardless of refresh rate.

    P0 state = Maximum Performance
    P2/P3 states = Balanced 3D performance-power

    Setting Power Management mode to High performance forces P0 state.
    What kind of voltage fluctuations are you getting?

    Edit: notice you are on stock voltage, vdroop is normal due to LLC set to 50% by default, you can try setting to 0% LLC(no voltage drop) instead of forcing P2 state(where you wont get the best performance)

    Some cards that are overvolted have issues with LLC set to 0 though

    WOW! I must agree that latency with these drivers is the best I have EVER had. The highest I get now is 46, but it mostly stays at about 20-30 when I check it with the latest LatencyMon. I used to always get occasional spikes of up to 400-600, although most of the time it would fluctuate between 15-40.

    I will try 340.76 and see if they are just as good!

    Based on my trials I can guarantee that in my case P2 and P0 provided the same performance but I got a flawless stability with P2 which was not the case with P0.
    Why P2 should be slower? P2 by default is targeting the reference 3D clock without boost but since I'm overclocking that mode I'm getting same clock speed as P0 with OC offset.
    Based on my experiments, the Vdrop on my side was mainly linked to the temperature above 80C.
    This is valid for me but may not be valid for newer generation of card...

    P2 state can range from 640 to 1202 in my case, where ref clock is 980~.

    Try flashing 770 bios with gpu boost 2.0, should fix some issues. Clock speeds being all over the place will happen at 70c, then 80c again(worse here) and has nothing to do with the voltage drop, thats based on load.

    OK I tried these drivers again, and I agree that they're very good. I think the first time I tried it I accidentally deleted a folder I shouldn't have, which caused some problems.

    But now everything is working great and they perform very well!

    Any chance this can be modded for laptops? I can't seem to get it to work properly.

    There is a possibility, but the driver is not really designed for mobile gpus..

    Hi, first, thanks!

    The driver doesn't have cuda? I just installed your modded driver at gtx660m and i can't see CUDA enable in xilisoft video converter.

    Thanks Cyrus!

    Installed with no driver signature issues. Working fine here!

    Can you use "CUDA" in video converter programs? I also installed this modd driver (gtx660m) but CUDA support doesnt work :3eyes:

    Yes, i know it, but this is 340.52 driver and i want update to 340.72 and to have cuda support.

    I installed 340.72 modded driver (cuda support add) and doesnt work cuda support for me.

    I can confitm this too, this drivers seems to be more smooth and the 5% fps increase in Metro redux is real
