I just installed on my 570 coming from the 285.69 drivers and I got a 10-15 fps increase. Got rid of a lot of stuttering too! Hopefully it works out for others!

I really like this set not as stuttery as the previous 285.69 in bf3 multiplayer even though there still is some here and there..will stick with these for now.

Yep, working perfectly on my card so they are official :) will test Battlefield 3 tomorrow and other games. Until someone uploads the driver to another link, it takes 2mins to register - email - sign in and download the driver

Battlefield 3

Though i've not noticed any stuttering with the first release BF3 beta drivers, 285.32 i think it was.

ahh, thats a shame. some games give me the classic 'i want more VRAM' stutter and i was kinda hoping for a magical fix that didnt involve turning the graphics down

a genuinely useful thread idea, ruined by pointless replies.

here's a tip

go to wherever you have BF3 Installed
mine is: D:\Origin\Origin Games\Battlefield 3 for example

then select the 'bf3.exe'


right click on the exe and go to the compatibility tab

then tick the box that says

"Disable Desktop Composition"

press apply

this will disable windows aero when you open the game and frees up vram

I game at 2560X1600 on 480SLI and sat at 1500MB Vram usage all the time

doing this trick frees up 3-400 mb vram meaning the computer is not bottlenecked

maxxed out, BF3 runs at 1200MB vram usage at the very most.

hope that helps some of you :)

I'm running the BF3 beta drivers 285.32 without issue, any point in me updating to the latest official or is the BETA driver generally considered to be more stable?

No point updating unless you really need to, I've updated just for the hell of it.. some people have claimed extra performance with these over the BF3 Beta drivers.

Also

Yea, exactly my experience. My GPU load/usage went up from 50-80% to 99% pretty much all the time.

I've uploaded the file and hotmail is down, so I can't get the link :mad:
 
Tried these drivers, but doesn't seem to have helped me. I'm using a ye ole' gtx260, and before updating the drivers to 285.xx from 280.xx it was smooth running, then when upgrading to 285.62 I started to have movement stuttering, most notable when looking around and strafing. It's singler player and 100% of the time so not lag, and worked fine with the older drivers, reason I upgraded them is due to some artifacting and the fact it kept telling me to update my older drivers before starting the game!
