Am I The only one noticing a consistent performance increase in terms of framerate stability resulting into game being much smoother since these drivers or is there someone else? I own a Gtx260 running in OC

the 180.84 and 185.20 were best for me. they also gave me higher scores than the 181.20s in the Crysis Warhead benchmark

 

i tried the 181.20 but went straight back to 185.20, those seem to lessen the aliasing in the game.

I just got a EVGA GTX 260 Core 216. Upgraded from a 8800GTS 640MB.

 

8800GTS

Medium Textures/Render Quality at High=32.07 FPS

 

GTX 260

High Textures/High Render=56.76 FPS

 

 

I Am glad i got this card. I can't wait to overclock it. These drivers definitely improved the fps but i hear that it affects other games though.

These drivers gave me a huge performance boost. The minimum frame rate is almost 10fps higher. Now the game is finally PLAYABLE on my GTX 280 and Xeon 3.6ghz!

 

No thanks to Rockstar, of course. But I guess NVidia didn't buy the "it's for future PCs only" gag and fixed the game for them....

my bench score is just same wrt 181.2 whql (44.xx with 181.20 , 45.xx with 181.22) but my min. fps is increased and i dont feel like the game is stuttering while playing around 20 fps.

181.20 drivers did infact give me a 10fps increase!

 

Was getting 30fps and it jumped to 40+fps each time I run benchmark.

 

We will see how long it takes to play tell it starts glitchin again.

That has happened to me before, it is usually caused by your older drivers not being completely deleted. Go into My Computer/Local Disk C:/NVIDIA/Then find your older driver folder and completely delete it..see if that helps.

The drivers in C:\NVIDIA are simply install files and will not affect your system at all.
