If anyone but me is playing this then these drivers are the best yet for the secret world dx11 and dx9. Holding 60 most of the time now.

instal hwinfo and see in game how much cpu the game is use?

I monitor the use of each core with task manager. (background CPU use is around 0 to 2% average over all cores) However, I just did the exact same run and this time CPU use was below normal! Not seen that happen before. So with max CPU use of around 65% to 75% on one core (the rest are at least 10% lower) and max GPU use of 55% to 75%, it is still jerky. I have taken screenshots of both Afterburner and Task Manager if you would like to see.

Every R310 driver so far (including this one) has shown severe stutters when using Lucid Virtu MVP in i-Mode (Windows 8 x64 and MVP 2.1.220.24249), when panning the camera inside GW2. If I don't touch my mouse (no camera movement) there is no stutter and the game is rendering properly. The latest 306.97 WHQL work flawlessly.

How do i modify the sharpness ? Couldn't find this option in nvidia control panel. NVIDIA SSAA "Added negative LOD adjustments for NVIDIA’s full-screen sparse grid supersampling mode to improve image sharpness"

this? http://www.geforce.com/whats-new/articles/nvidia-geforce-310-54-beta-drivers-released Scroll down..

Configuring SGSSAA to reach this level of detail can at times be tricky due to the need to counteract texture blurring that occurs when using the technique. With a Negative LOD Bias, applied via NVIDIA Inspector, texture quality can be restored, but unfortunately the correct value can only be ascertained through trial and error. Following repeated calls from users for a solution, we silently introduced an automatic LOD Bias feature in last month’s 310.33 beta driver, which we’re pleased to officially announce today. Now, users need only enable Sparse Grid Supersampling in the profile of a compatible game in NVIDIA Inspector, and the new feature will do the rest.

I see everybody complaining about Windows 8 issues and now I'm really glad I didn't upgrade. I'll stick with Windows 7 x64 until MS drops it's support or other proper OS comes out. BTW, I'm downloading these now and I'll report any issues with them!

Theres absolutely no need to upgrade to Win8 if you dont have a Tablet or Touchscreen.

-With 310.54 BF3 runs on 700+MHz => low perfomance. -Space Marine runs better, but game sometime crash (artefacts appears).

no i still get drops in fps on Oman. nothing drivers can do, i'm affraid it's up to dice to fix whatever they screwed up in a past patch. the june patch for me. ever since then i get drops on the B2K maps, especially Oman! its some thing to do with the Mesh Quality. i can run all on Ultra with 2xAA on all maps except the B2k maps, but before the june patch i could run Ultra on *ALL* maps. so untill its gets fixed i turn Mesh to medium and everything else is cranked and i can hold 60 fps vsynced.

I didnt test B2K, i was getting these issues in TDM maps - well i played only one map Noishar Canals and then reverted to 306.97 and all was fine again @ Win7 x64. Both 310.33 and 310.34Q had these weird fps drops (by player vs player close combat, cpu bound locations and smoke, particle fx) 5-7fps lower by min fps and if i got min 50-53ish fps, now ~42-45fps is a big difference for me. Im gonna see what's up with this release, otherwise im going back to 306.97. :infinity:

Well I've just crashed with these drivers and I've not crashed in months with the old WHQL's. Reinstalling WHQL's... *Edit: Game was Battlefield 3.

I installed these without any major hiccups. Noticed on the GeForce.com forum that they've identified what caused the black screen/flickering issue with the v310.33 beta drivers on Windows 8: 1) Flickering Screen/Black Screen After Installing R310.33/R310.54 Drivers on Windows 8 Issue After installing the R310 driver on Windows 8, the subsequent reboot results in a black or flickering screen. Root Cause This occurs because Windows Update performed a background installation of a Release 304 driver, which requires a reboot to complete the installation. After installing the Release 310 driver and then rebooting the system, installation of both the Release 304 as well as the Release 310 is completed, resulting in conflicting driver binaries and the black/ flickering screen. Workaround - Prevention To avoid the issue, reboot the system before installing the Release 310 driver. Alternately, you can check the driver status under the Device Manager and perform the reboot if the Device Manager indicates that a restart is needed. Then install the driver. Workaround - Recovery If you did not perform the necessary reboot prior to installing the driver and now encounter the black screen, do the following: 1 Reboot in Safe Mode. 2 Uninstall the driver. 3 Disconnect from the internet and then restrt the system. 4 In normal mode, install the new driver.
