    So this driver is only for Farcry 3? I have 301.61 ATM and I only really play Black Ops 2 ATM.

    What are you on about? I'm an nVida and AMD user across several highend rigs. AMD's driver support trumps nVidia on more than plenty occasions. Stop jumping on the Red v Green hippyfest and try to at least be somewhat helpful.

    I don't know exactly what AndyB does at Nvidia,but it seems a lot of members jump all over him. Shooting the messenger? If I had issues with Nvidia cards, and or drivers,I would simply switch to Radeon.

    well i hope AndyB get the word arround to his bosses and tell them what we expect of them, and he is a pr so i guess his job is to do just that.

    and i in no way have been disrespectful in my comments, so by me theres no harm done.

    ps: i payed like 500usd on my 480gtx on realise, i just wont hop on to anyones bandwagon just to get stable drivers.

    and for me (and i think many of us) is not easy as you just to dish out money and deal with it. So its not about how simple it is to switch, like you propose.

    well if people are that unhappy with nvidia I'm just stating your only other choice is AMD and from my experiences with AMDs drivers, its worth giving them some time to fix the issues. Don't come here and bash the nvidia reps that are helping the rest of us though.

    we are not bashing anyone, we are just complaing based on facts.

    Why all of a sudden ppl just tend to wait, and hope, ive waited long enough with lots of realises on that wait and hope attitude, if one doesnt complain then nvidia doesnt know whats going on.

    im sorry, but, i have patience, but i lack the conformists attitude.

    i googled this up to the word conformist so anyone doesnt get bothurt.

    Conformist
    a person who conforms, especially unquestioningly, to the usual practices or standards of a group, society, etc.

    It clearly says here: http://www.geforce.com/whats-new/articles/nvidia-geforce-310-64-beta-drivers-released

    ...that it is identical to 310.54 other than Far Cry 3 (and stuff from .61), so if you had crashes with .54 you will have it with this one as well.

    If the next WHQL doesn't fix it then complain more, but there's no point in bashing them in this thread for something they did not claim.

    I understand the pains of the game crashing, it's the only game I play right now. I'm not very vocal because I have my exams coming up and these crashes are an excuse for not to play at all lol. But point is, they acknowledged it, and they are working on the fix. Complaining now won't get the fixes out faster.

    Edit: btw you quoted the consolidated changes in R310 driver branch, not 310.64 only.

    Far Cry 3 driver, I don't have Far Cry 3 yet so I won't be needing this.

    PS...can't believe all the thread bashing about BF3 and other games when this thread is clearly only for Far Cry 3 players.

    Not entirely true; the third choice is providing feedback in these forums and pushing the driver development team to fix whatever makes you unhappy. :)

    Still better than waiting & doing nothing.

    clearly, the far cry 3 is named after: far cry 3.

    Look at the top of your browser bar and be Enlighted.


    this is a driver thread, and you are on the video cards and nvidia drivers sections =)

    I just did a complete re install of BF3 and now it doesn't crash anymore :eek:

    It crashed with all the latest beta drivers before re installing. Fingers crossed it stays this way.

    you are right, im just annoyed how they have taken soo long to realise that WHQL fix on the popular games we play(not just some aaa game), and like i said before im just taking advantage of the fact that Nvidia PR is here.

    Btw i dont feel its bashing, tho, i just pointed out things without being disrespectful. and if he is a PR, i just like the idea to be heard.

    Yes so true, been here done that.. But then they go AMD has it too or its a game bug, the funny thing was older driver didnt have that and yes it happens quite often lately.. The best thing is to report and report again, it will get fixed eventually.
    But this cycle takes up to 4-5 months (sometimes more, sometimes less), because they always prioritize newer games instead of fixing it at the same time with newer titles :S

    Although most of my problems have/are fixed by now so i stopped reporting it. At least something :thumbup:

    i would like to suggest and let anyone know that the official beta file size is smaller than the pre offical release that means nvidia made changes to file before making it a official beta but its my option not everyone may agree but for those who do or wanna compare that maybe can as well but i would think that the official beta from nvidia has fixes that the pre beta none offical may not have

    Well here on a 680M this driver actualy performes worse vs 310.54. 310.54 had increased performance in some games (didnt try 310.61). So it's broken for 680m like the first 310. Even hitman performance didnt increase. (at least 1 fps like some reported).

    In case you don't remember me, I had 6970M Crossfire in my notebook before upgrading to the GTX 680M.

    I was the one that had the Skyrim Flickering bug that got resolved 10 months after release.
