Drivers are working great. I noticed they include Geforce experience in the package. I was a little skeptical but tried it anyway. I love it! It makes The Witcher 2 nice and smooth with uber enabled and the graphics seem to be way better. This one is a keeper.

Merging threads.

Not sure why, but I upgraded to these drivers and updated to EVGA Precision-X 4.2.0 and now for some reason my boost clock won't activate. K-Boost is disabled, all the same previous settings, but my EVGA GTX 670 FTW Signature 2 will not clock above 800MHz.
 
*EDIT*
 
NEVERMIND. I turned the PC off and on again. =P

You can if you plant C4/Mines on it, and then shoot the C4/Mines with a .44 magnum revolver. Then on the kill message it'll say you killed them with a revolver \o/ I love those moments....

Works with an Engineer too ^_^ I often troll people with mines. An effective way to take a tank out stealthily is to sneak up, plant mines near it, then throw a frag at the mines to detonate them and take the tank down. That way you get a tank kill with a grenade =P

Yup, better performance. My best Valley score went up from 2049@49 fps with old drivers+bios, to 2119@50.6 fps with the new drivers+bios.  [edit: smoother farcry3 graphics too, new driver is nice.]

The installer fails right after the extraction of installation files.
It gives me the message :
installer cannot continue
no internet connection found
i also tried running it from the extracted files with no luck
I guess its related with the geforce experience feature,
but i will have no internet for the next 10-15 days,
and in all cases i believe that a driver installation has to be possible under any circumstances and for any needs.
any ideas? a modded inf maybe?

What about for XP64 Pro? Any improvements under that OS?

Problem solved.
If you want to install the driver on a pc without internet connection, just go to the extracted installation files and delete the GFexperience folder. I deleted other folders of components that i don't need, but i guess deleting the GF experience folder is enough.
 

not happy had to hook up dvi over my displayport get solid black screen when I do clean install of the drivers, yes fresh install 5 times of os still does with this 320 driver only,  checked all four of my 680 4gb. if I revert to the 314.22 drivers they work fine with 3d surround on all 3 monitors asus vg248 144hz monitors 24 inches so hopefully NVidia will fix it
 
resorting back to 314.22 too bugy for 320 drivers

 
Have not had any issues at all with this new driver. Installed at same time as doing a fresh o/s install on a new SSD, so maybe that is why? Played GW2, BF3, CivV, Metro LL without any problems. Happy with it. Sorry it's not working out for some of you though. Downloaded from NVidia, not EVGA, if that makes any difference...
 

im using them without any problems,,after switching from the 314 series to these in metro last light frames increased appx 50% in game without any changes..from 60 +/- to 120 +/-....3xssaa...smooth,,

With these new drivers, I notice a significant decrease in performance when running Xsplit and constant client crashes in some games. These "WHQL" drivers definitely have some issues to be ironed out, which I think it odd cause I never noticed any issues in 320.14.
