    Nice, always up for some new drivers! I wonder when it says it improves PhysX support for Arkham City if it also improves PhysX for older titles as well?

    No bsods here yet, and im on a good overclock. Be sure to install drivers with DS method, linked in my sig.
    Great drivers so far. Skyrim had a bit of perfomance boost, batman as well.

    Did you guys even read the release notes? This update only offers a very specific list of bug fixes, and lists no performance enhancements.

    I wouldn't even bother with it.

    A word of advice: if you run DS don't ever run driver cleaner and CCleaner.
    Specially driver cleaner which is known to mess things up.
    Also be sure DS is updated to latest version over the official website, should be 3.5.0.
    If you happen to use guru3d version, is known to have serious issues.
