    I just searched on this and it shows 347.25 for my 780Ti's, dated 2/10/15.  I think waiting may be best.

    This is only for GTX980!?
    Why I say that... Because from GTX780Ti you are not able to see new drivers.

    I did a search for Recommended/Certified drivers and Version: 345.20 came up on the search results.
     
    http://www.geforce.com/drivers
     
     

    I only see 347.52 for the GTX 980
    GeForce Game Ready Driver - WHQL
    Version: 347.52 - Release Date: Tue Feb 10, 2015
    Same on http://www.nvidia.com/download/driverResults.aspx/81877/en-us
    You have to click the Beta and Older Drivers Links to see the Drivers dated 24 Feb 2015
    You will then see 345.20 February 24, 2015 for the GTX 970 & 980 Card
    For the GTX 960 you will see 347.52 February 10, 2015
    For the Titan Black you will see 345.20 February 24, 2015
    For the Titan you will see 341.44 February 24, 2015
    For the GTX 780Ti you will see 345.20 February 24, 2015
    For the GTX 780 you will see 341.44 February 24, 2015
    For the GTX 690 you will see 341.44 February 24, 2015
    But Only Under Beta and Older Drivers 
    Under Windows Update you will get 347.52 February 10, 2015

    I am getting lower scores and frames with 345.20 but it is more stable.
     
    347.52 is making my computer boot to a black screen.

    I went back to 347.52 today. BF4 on 345.20 gave issues. No issue using 347.52. 3-Way SLI
