Man of Honour
Time to try the 355.98, cheers. 
And.........
NVIDIA's Windows driver version 356.04 (released 09-22-15) provides beta support for GameWorks VR.
WIN 10 64bit:

WIN 8.1/8/7Vista 64bi
http://developer.download.nvidia.co...ce_win8_winvista_win7_64bit_international.exe
Much newer than the latest officials!
R356.04 (r355_00-189) / 10.18.13.5604 (9-22-2015)
I prefer developer drivers
FFS, I literally just installed the 355.98's last night!
Caporegime
That is more for devs bud, so no need to install unless you plan on creating VR games.
Soldato
Yeah but if thy're better than the other ones....!
No, its fine, I'll stick with the latest officials, Let Neil beta test them.
I'm trying the 355.98 set, the 356.04's gave me a driver crash running Risen 3.
Well no problems whatsoever with these dev drivers, they have the same stuff in them as the officials but with slightly more features trailered for devs. I've always found the dev drivers to be better in both stability and performance

Just had a similar (but it recovered fully, unlike the prior crash which required a restart) crash with Risen 3 with these, so it might not like the OC.
Never had a problem with the OC'd 670 though, with this game.

Getting a lower frame time variance in BF3 with these so that's gotta be good. Don't ask me how stable these are though as I've not had a chance to test it on a long gaming session yet.
Soldato
I've put some hours into BF4 and they seem to work well.
Caporegime
Depends if you want the recording software or not. If not, custom install and just install the driver and PhysX but I use ShadowPlay, so just express install.
Permabanned
I've just crashed with the driver hung in BF3.
Soldato
Can I ask a little question here?
I just recently switched to an Nvidia card, and just upgraded to Windows 10.
AM I still OK to do my Gefore Driver updates through Nvidia's software, or should I be letting Windows handle updates?
I'm aware there was a kerfuffle over this when W10 deployed, but I'm unsure how it was resolved.

I don't think Windows interferes like that anymore, i haven't had that problem.
What i do is check for driver updates through GeForce Experience and let it install the new Drivers, that seems to work just fine.

lol
Thanks, seems the most 'organic' way, I'll continue to operate that way, cheers sir.
