New Nvidia drivers out

Does this fix the nvidia desktop color profile from resetting everytime the computer is booted or a game started in fullscreen mode?
 
I can't even get them installed! Just won't go through even after doing a clean install and multiple other things. Old drivers aren't installing either. I don't know what else to try now. :/

lol all those times I never did see the stutter bug that was supposed to plague everyone, this time I am seeing the stutter bug grrrrr

I turned settings to low and getting 80-90fps but stuttering.

I saw the stutter bug with a previous beta, which is why I thought safer to stay with the whql drivers as they work!
 
Worst drivers I have tried

Will carry on using 301.42 for 2 cards and 306.23 for one card.

Also 310.70 freezes system up when installing when running quad sli.
 
Those of you getting stuttering in FC3 try this:

Add this MaxFps="60" Gfx_Maxfps="60"
after showfps="1" in your GamerProfile.xml no more microstuttering. You have to mark GamerProfile.xml as "read only".

Was from Guru3d forums....change 60 to 120 if on 120hz monitor.
 
@Greg,

Genuinely sorry to hear about the stutter bug rearing it's ugly head again.:(

Instead of trying to eak out slight performance improvements, both Nvidia and AMD should be trying harder to iron out blatant series problems-stutter bug-hdmi to name but one each for each camp.

Although this must be the worst problematic series I've ever taken notice of regarding Nvidia drivers and possibly a design issue as well. :(

Just to let you know, the new 12.11 beta 11 has sorted out FC3 performance and it's absolutely flying now@1080p on full ultra on my setup greg, smooth cut scenes too now.

Glad you have it running sweet Tommy and agreed on the Nvidia front. The reply I got on reporting the stutter problem was laughable. I was told the reson it is stuttering is because I have SLI enabled now! Great news :confused:

Oh well, maybe they have a fix soon and I have plenty of other games to enjoy but I was so looking forward to this game.
 
installed these last night, fired up some farcry 3 today.

everything set to ultra and FOV set to 90

get around a 10 fps increase in most areas. Dont see the micro stutter that some have reported.

Both cards sitting at 98% usage

2560x1440 resolution
 
no problems for me with far cry 3 @ 6040x1080, smooth 50fps ish, dx9 looks exact same as dx11 (but with better draw distance) if you tweak it and runs much better too

Just played it for a couple of hours on DX9 and pretty smooth. Graphics not too bad either. I didn't have Afterburner on, so I am not sure on fps but felt pretty smooth and this was on 306.23 drivers.

I will give the new betas a run out tomorrow with the same settings. I will run AB as well (I was just seeing if it was smooth and I kinda got carried away tonight :D)
