Something I have noticed for the past few beta and full driver releases is they never list the MX series. I feel so left out never seeing my 675mx, like my video card is the red-headed stepchild of kepler that everyone ignores while secretly hoping he just dies.

I've been assuming that as long as I see the 680m (since it is the same GK chip) I should be ok, and so far I haven't had any problems.

 

curious, anybody tried these on the 780m? Wondering if they'll install without a modded .inf

 

it took ages for the 680mx to show on their drivers so it will get here one day.

 

they are working like a charm at last...
and also they perform pretty well!!!!
I saw couple points up on 3dmark11 and on games!!!
nice drivers!!!!

 

No support for mid grade 700m level GPU's: 750m/760m/765m/770m

Modded inf detects but then it gives an error during driver install.

 

I believe this new driver 326.19 is more optized on Windows 8.1 preview vs. regular Windows 8. The version number for me, was the giveaway. To test this theory, I've tested it on both Windows 8, and Windows 8.1.
Both OS images were clean. I then installed the latest chipset, Realtec Audio, Intel HD4600 drivers, and finally the NVIDIA drivers to test. The machine is running at stock clocks (no OC what so ever), w/ fan blasting at the Turbo

Windows 8 (both ran twice, kept the highest score)

320.49 Beta Drivers --> NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780M video card benchmark result - Intel Core i7-4700MQ, MS-1763 (P7632)
326.19 Beta Drivers --> NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780M video card benchmark result - Intel Core i7-4700MQ, MS-1763 (P7495)

New drivers (326.19 Beta)= -137 (They suck under windows 8, not to mention "Instability" issues) (couldn't install Geforce Experience on the first try)
BTW: This new driver does not require modded inf files. Drivers install correctly without any issues nor needing to turn off the driver signature enforcement. At least, that's the case with MSI GTX780M


Based on version numbers, I had a hunch that this is nothing more than a Windows 8.1 drivers w/ compatibility added to better co-exist with Win 8 (kinda backwards..)
Aside from unified installation archecture (winxp, 7, 8), and perhaps some 'game specific' optimizations, NVIDIA pretty much jumped the gun on this for the regular Windows 8 users.
At least it's the case for my machine (GTX780M). If you have a different model, perhaps you're not seeing this issue, but at least for this model (GTX780M) there are lots of issues under windows 8.


To prove my theory, I've layered the Windows 8.1 Acronis backup image I had made last week (clean) w/ windows updates. My theory proved to be correct on 2 fronts.

1. Installation was very smooth. Geforce Expericne and everything else installed on the first try, without any issues what so ever.
2. Score jumped back to P76xx range, and even surpassed the performance of the 320.49 drivers.

High score reached P7659. Granted that's only 37 points jump, but nevertheless, it's the highest score I've seen on this machine (stock settings)
PScore 7659
Graphics Score: 7727
Physics Score: 8479
Combined Score: 6328


Machine specs: i7-4700MQ, 16gb kingston hyper-x 1866mhz (4 sticks)
Samsung SSD 840pro 256GB, GTX780M

 

wonder when the next set of drivers will hit for the 760M; was pretty surprised to see 59fps by it in MechWarrior Online with medium settings, which is similar to the rates I was getting with my 9170's 7970M. Neat to see what it can do with better drivers in the future.

 

Modded inf for Celvo 680m only. 326.19 x64

This is incorrect, as the drivers installed fine on my y500, but the second 750m is not enabled (disable and re-enable in Device Manager gets it to show up OK there, but the driver does not see it for SLI).

 

Do you think these drivers are stable? I see alot of people complaining over nvidia's comment section on drivers page.
i have not upgraded my drivers since 314.22 considering all releases after that seem unstable.

Do you think they will be fine? because according to nvidia's numbers performance improvements in games are massive from 5-20%

my drivers @ 314.22 are very stable right now and they work fine but i want every improvement i can get considering games like crysis 3 and battlefield 3 need it. do you suggest to upgrade?

 

I installed them using GFE and it crashed during installation. I restarted installation and it installed fine after that. So far so good, I haven't run any bench marks but my games have been playing pretty good so far. 485m here

 

My statement about SLI not working was in 8.1 preview. Rolled back to vanilla Win 8 (had lots of issues in the dev preview) and the drivers installed fine and SLI is working. y500 750m sli.

 

No support for my gtx 760m .

MSI GE40 here.

 

should be
GeForce 700M series:
GTX 780M, GTX 770M, GTX 765M, GTX 760M, GT 750M, GT 745M, GT 740M, GT 735M, GT 730M, GT 720M, 710M

 

I had several problems with many games on my Alienware 18 with 780 SLI ... so I went back to the stock drivers.

 

Borderlands 2 crashes a lot with these drivers.
