    laptop video 2 go just posted this, the first 300 series driver. but you need to use the modded inf file to get it to work, well at least i do, and i have a 485m which is still a semi current card.

    and in the inf file it appears only the gtx 680 is supported.

    actually i increased my voltage a tad and now it clocks real high and its stable.

    now there is a 301.1 driver, available on nvidia's site. additionally these new 3xx.xx drivers have something called adaptive vsync which really smooths everything out.

    Just modify the inf file to include your card Hardware ID and name. If you don't understand, then wait for LV2G to release a new mod inf.

    edit: here may have found an .inf that will work. nv_disp.rar

    edit: nope
