    Was expecting this, wonder what date it'll be? doubt it'll be today, but maybe before the 19th at least? :)
    edit: 18th, not 19th? I guess my release date memory is off a bit, so yay, a day early!

    I have the game pre installed. Says I need to download day 1 patch manually or through GOG. Since I preinstalled it. How do I install the patch? I guess it release the exact time the game does? Few more hours...

    Since GOG client is new, it's hard to tell. I am hoping they just push patches like steam does where it automatically downloads and applies it as I foresee TW3 having a good amount of patches in it's life time and manually D/Ling those and installing them will get a little tedious.
     
    if you are just doing the DRM free version through GOG website, there is already a link somewhere of where the patch will be available to download. I'm at work so I can't provide it :-X.

    These new ones crashed my BF4 after 1 hour , so I went thru & did complete driver cleaner, then manually deleted Nvidia folders, then ran CCleaner like 4 times ( rebooting PC each time ) , finally reinstalling these clean/fresh again before heading off to bed & crossing fingers.....
     
    ...and I only ever install the drivers & PhysX parts - I never use the shadowplay nor geforce experience nor 3d files or hdmi audio parts 
     
    Hoping that all helped whilst playing Witcher 3

    Which drivers is stable for BF4?  I have the same issues installing new drivers. BF4 crashed....
    Don't bother with Witcher 3 if you plan to play it using keyboard and mouse.  See this thread: http://forums.evga.com/The-Witcher-3-keyboard-bindings-m2337162.aspx

    I found that there was only one key I'd like to change but it won't let me.  But the message I get when trying is that I can't do that now.  Not exactly sure what that means?  Like maybe later on in the game I will be able to?
     
    But beyond that, playing with the mouse/keyboard (for me anyway) has been just fine.  I'll adapt after some game time...

    I haven't had any crash issues with these drivers since i turned off shadow play, so give that a shot if you are having issues.

    NOPE,  these drivers are horrible for me...( first ones in a long time)..they crashed just sitting at desktop, they crashed while internet browsing,..and then only 10 minutes into a game!!! 
     
    WOW, these are really horrible for my system stability... I'm going to have to put previous ones back on or Nvidia needs a hot fix real quick...

    Yes, they are one of the worst nvidia has WHQL'd. Desktop crashing stopped once i turned shadow play off. But then i wanted to play other games like GTAV or BF4 and those games would crash. So...horrible job there guys, how could this go unnoticed?

    New drivers increase performance substantially in The Witcher, but cause more frequent crashes for me. Maybe I have to wait for the enhanced edition to be able to play this game.

    Zero problems with these drivers. Not a single crash and The Witcher 3 runs great. Not saying problems don't exist. They obviously do. As I have seen many people complain about these drivers and game.
