285.38 BETA Release Notes

These have also got improvements for RAGE as well.

Yes!! I have just read the release notes, and it seems that this driver set stops the shadow/texture flashing in some extreme cases with ambient occlusion enabled. I will test these and report back when I get home.

Cheers scooby!

Bearing this in mind, does anyone actually see this, or is it just me? I have a 560ti SOC.

Cheers for this. By the sounds of it, it'll be needed for BF3.

Weird, downloaded 64 bit Win7, said they weren't compatible with my version of windows....

It said that for me too, the link was to the XP version, I went to nvidia site and downloaded there, haven't tried them yet though.

Very weird, I downloaded them for Windows 7 64bit and they installed fine. Maybe try now in case one of the links were wrong. Could try extracting the files within the exe and point to it when updating driver via device manager

just tried these with bfbc2 and they work fine, infact runs better

This.

Home Premium retail is £100, give or take, or you can get an OEM copy for about £70. No reason to go for Ultimate.

On topic, I only just downloaded the 285.27 drivers this morning :rolleyes:
