    Hey guys, I just wanted to get opinions on the new Nvidia 310.64 drivers. I am downloading Planetside 2 at the moment, and I hear the new drivers improve the performance of that specific game, but I also hear the drivers aren't friendly to the 680m (my graphics card). Has anyone tested this driver on Planetside 2, and did you see a big improvement leap?

    looking at whats covered it only mentions planetside 2 in the 3D vision section and says its not recommended.

    these drivers were only really released to coincide with far cry 3 release but i havnt loaded them. ive stuck with the beta 310.54 released for blops2

    They should be okay. I believe the previous nvidia betas (310.61) said it improved compatiblity/performance

    and the 310.64 should be pretty much the same as 310.61 except like the guy above me said, 310.64 just adds stuff for far cry 2.

    I recommend using it. If you have problems, use older drivers.
