NVIDIA GeForce 314.07 WHQL Available
by Jarred Walton on February 18, 2013 1:37 PM EST
NVIDIA's beta R313 driver with performance enhancements for Crysis 3 (among other titles) has now received WHQL certification. We wouldn't expect much of a difference in performance relative to the beta drivers, but NVIDIA states they provide up to a 5% performance improvement in Crysis 3 with GTX 680. As usual, you can grab the drivers for all current desktop and mobile NVIDIA GPUs:
Desktop 314.07 Windows Vista/7/8 64-bit
Desktop 314.07 Windows Vista/7/8 32-bit
Mobile 314.07 Windows Vista/7/8 64-bit
Mobile 314.07 Windows Vista/7/8 32-bit
Thanks go as usual to reader SH SOTN for the quick notification.

wrong digit in title ReplyJarredWalton - Monday, February 18, 2013 - link
Already corrected. ReplyJeffFlanagan - Monday, February 18, 2013 - link
I'd just like to have reliable HDMI audio, without having to disable and re-enable hdmi audio in the Nvidia driver every single time I switch my receiver back to PC from another source. Let's get the basics right before tweaking performance. Replydaniel142005 - Monday, February 18, 2013 - link
Interesting, which card and OS are you using? I've never had this happen and all I use for audio is HDMI, PC HDMI -> TV -> Optical out to surround sound. ReplyWillardjuice - Monday, February 18, 2013 - link
Yep I have the exact same issue. In addition, nvidia has never fixed the "silent stream bug". Hdmi audio is the one place amd definitely beats nvidia in (at least wrt drivers). ReplyKevin G - Monday, February 18, 2013 - link
Do these drivers have any references to GK110 based parts? Replylmcd - Monday, February 18, 2013 - link
Up to 5% or 105% performance?I'd consider 5% a pretty huge regression. Reply

Fixed, Mr. Snark. :p Replyandy5174 - Tuesday, February 19, 2013 - link
These versions all require additional 12mV (default 1.0V) to OC gtx460 to 850-1700-4000 and hence lead to 3~5C increase in temperature. Reply
