What? 301.25?

Do you mean 301.24?
If not, what is the difference?

 

Read post #1 again. :nerd:

 

Sorry mate, should have expanded on my comment.
Opposed to released for GTX 680/670 what enhancements does it bring?

I cant find a breakdown.

 

This is only info I have now atm.
Maybe changelog come later.

 

No worries. Ill try them out tonight and report back.
Thanks again

 

Don't forget to restart the PC once you've installed these drivers. Although games will still play fine if you don't, I noticed with yesterday's v301.24 and today's drivers that the clocks aren't detected properly and any customised GPU Boost settings you're using won't work.

Did the v301.24 drivers have CUDA v3.2.1 like these?

 

I've just noticed that the 'Texture filtering - Trilinear optimization' setting is set to On and greyed out (i.e. unselectable) in both the Global and per-game profiles when the 'Texture filtering - Quality' setting is set to High quality. I've always used High quality texture filtering but in previous drivers you could still change the 'Trilinear optimization'. I've read that this setting has a bug anyway in that 'on' is actually 'off' and vice versa.

 

It has always been off and greyed out when High Quality is selected. If it is greyed out, then it is off....regardless of what it says.

 

These don't appear in Nvidia's website yet, might give them a try this evening..

 

Nice! Alot of drivers in a few days, tried the new WHQL one, and the 300.83.
Seems the new drivers have a weird stutter bug I didn't have with my 570GTX on old drivers.

300.83 fixes this, im going to try this one, to see if it fixes the stutter problem, for the 680GTX.

 

No stuttering here on 2x GTX680 SLI on 301.10 WHQL or 301.24 BETA, haven't tried these 301.25 BETA yet, will try them out soon.

 

Seems not everyone has the problem, but there are post about this on the nvidia forums and here in stutter thread, guru3d.

See here: http://forums.guru3d.com/showthread.php?t=360468&page=2 last post, all those users have a 680 GTX, and the same problem

 

Yup all good. No stuttering or anything else problematic.

 

I'm wondering if I should even bother with these drivers yet, considering it has no patch notes so they may even be the same as 301.10 WHQL.

 

Hi

All geforce 300.xx have cuda 4.2.1, just like the latest 296.36 Quadro/Tesla.

 

yep no international version also

 

scaling broken same like 301.24

 

what scaling mate i dont have that problem u runing 680 ? as this drivers are meant for them believe it or not...

 

anyone with stutter issues or lag spikes with 301 try these? I am running the 300 since its the only driver that works for me currently. If anyone tests please do post! then I can try when I get home.
