And Microsoft Update doesn't count when it comes to that, it's WHQL. BTW, you noticed that they added a new user to your OS called "UpdatusUser"? You almost think it's a hack.

That's probably all they had time to test....I guess, lol. Other people said great things about the new drivers with 470s. StarCraft II – fixed profile to properly recognize the retail game executable name and match the 3D Vision rating of “Good” Ha! I knew it!

Ok well previously i scored 4220ish in the final fantasy benchmark now i scored 5011.... i will definitely say significant improvement..... People with gtx 480s where scoring quit abit lower then what i just got with my 470... so i can only imagine the increase on the 480s now. Overclocked 732/1752 During the test my load time was better, and my fps did not spike drop like before... im going to keep them until the release :) gj nvidia.

+1k in Vantage for me. I'm also noticing higher GPU utilization in BC2... I'd say +/- 10%.

(unless you use a dedicated physx card) Dedicate one 480 card to physx and play on the other 480, see how that goes.

unigine was down about 15fps for me, and stone giant was down around 30fps. i might have to reinstall these drivers, not seeing an advantage over 259.96 drivers

My single 480 just laughed at BC2. 45-50 fps at 2048x1152 with all settings maxed and 8xAA and 16xAF. 45-50 was smooth as silk. Just amazing. This is what I payed 500 bucks for.

I think the latest sli profile are always built in the latest drivers. SLI profile update when you using an older driver version imo.
