No, I didn't compare patches or anything. I just downloaded it a few hours ago, so patch 811 was already installed. Also, I ran it at 1440p. Anyway, I didn't get any of the weird frametime spikes you were getting, with max settings and SMAA.
This is just one benchmark run, and the spikes are the transitions I believe. Framerate was very high during the entire run.

811
Loss of performance in 1080p isn't though as even b770 is slower on .59 than on .31.
Off to downgrading the driver now...
Update: downgraded back to 388.31 and am getting essentially the same result in Far Cry Primal in 1080p as on .59 - and nowhere near what I was getting back when .31 released. So it's not the driver and it's most likely the latest Win10 1709 update. Will do a clean install of 1709 b16299.98 in an hour and see if this will change anything.
FFS, MS... This will be a third clean install of 1709 because of various problems it brought.
Frametime variance is certainly on the game's latest patch. Here, I've compared it between b770 and b811:

yo folks, what about video playback / dxva on this .59 release? (not really into gaming lately, sry)

Try running the game with Full Screen Optimisations disabled (compatibility on the exe)

Clean install of 1709 + latest updates (b16299.98), 388.59 drivers and Uplay (to launch the game) - and fps in FCP are back to where they were with .31.
No idea what's caused the slowdown but there were no h/w changes in the last month.
Will install stuff back and see if it will go down again at some point.
Tried it yesterday, had no effect whatsoever.

Well, I've restored the system completely and performance is the same as it was on .31 now. Weird. No idea why it was suddenly lower in low resolutions.

How to disable the NVidia Tray icon in the new drivers?/?
Also does Nvidia has anything to do with UXDService while trying to restart or shutdown computer ? saying the service need to be close etc etc.

decided to host them for anyone who wants to install them. I will try to keep the folder up to date.
I am fairly confident it has to do with nVidia as it started for some of us with a previous driver update and the only definitive description of the same issue I can find on the internet has to do with nVidia drivers. There is just probably some bug whatever that service is from nVidia that is taking longer to shut down OR it is sending back information to nVidia despite those of us who have installed minimal installations of the driver sets as the information I was able to dig up about UXD services had to do with information gathering and reporting. Unfortunately I cannot say anything definitive about what it is as I don't have enough information to go on that would surpass speculation.
On another note, if you install your drivers with the "free of crap" or "minimal" installation you are missing out on the latest Vulkan Runtime Libraries provided by nVidia so I have Cave Waverider
