    Hey everyone :)

    Who's already pre-ordered Tomb Raider? I have because it looks AMAZING!

    Just wondering if anybody has information on how soon Nvidia will most likely release beta drivers with some TR optimization?

    normally the day or two before but only if its a very demanding game.
    they dont release new drivers for every game released and only really started at the end of last year for blops 2 then far cry 3 then crysis 3.
    just keep an eye on the gaming thread as if and when they do i will have them posted asap (unless im beaten to it).

    They updated the sli profile for Tomb Raider, so that's something.

    It may not need any optimization. Could also be built in based on beta content provided to nVidia by Square Enix with previous WHQL...

    It clearly says that it's the Game Ready driver for Tomb Raider.

    Shame it still runs like a pile of doo doo anything over normal settings on the options. Maybe I should get used to that more and more this year on my single 680m card. :(

    Kind of pre-ordered it and played it from the first minutes when it was launched. :D
