    344.16 was a driver for desktop GTX 980 and 970 only. It can be confusing.

    I was hyped until I went to the actual website and saw the M at the end.

    Now I'm just sad and a tiny bit pissed. :p

    Might be be worth modding INF to install this driver as it enables DSR on Kepler cards.

    Sorry for double post.
    I also have GT650M (with Optimus)
    I took NVMIsi.inf and in column NTamd64.6.1 added:
    %NVIDIA_DEV.0FD1.10CD.1462% = Section016, PCI\VEN_10DE&DEV_0FD1&SUBSYS_10CD1462

    I also edited Listdevices.txt and added everywhere but Device manager has ID instead of name now:
    DEV_0FD1&SUBSYS_10CD1462 "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 650M"

    The problem is... I have no DSR settings.

    Could you tell me where your steps differed? Maybe section differs? TNX!

    Ooooooooh. Thanks for link. Nobody there found DSR on mobile GPU for now. It says also that DSR disappears if you oc monitor/change default resolution profile. Optimus doesn't let you that so... could be the reason.

    Yeah it seems to be inconsistent. Some SLI owners report it working, others not, Nvidia's own employee says it doesn't work. LOL

    To be fair x2, he's on the company payroll so he's gotta be frugal with the truth sometimes.
