NVIDIA GeForce 314.07 WHQL Available
by Jarred Walton on February 18, 2013 1:37 PM ESTNVIDIA's beta R313 driver with performance enhancements for Crysis 3 (among other titles) has now received WHQL certification. We wouldn't expect much of a difference in performance relative to the beta drivers, but NVIDIA states they provide up to a 5% performance improvement in Crysis 3 with GTX 680. As usual, you can grab the drivers for all current desktop and mobile NVIDIA GPUs:
Desktop 314.07 Windows Vista/7/8 64-bit
Desktop 314.07 Windows Vista/7/8 32-bit
Mobile 314.07 Windows Vista/7/8 64-bit
Mobile 314.07 Windows Vista/7/8 32-bit
Thanks go as usual to reader SH SOTN for the quick notification.

I'd just like to have reliable HDMI audio, without having to disable and re-enable hdmi audio in the Nvidia driver every single time I switch my receiver back to PC from another source. Let's get the basics right before tweaking performance.daniel142005 - Monday, February 18, 2013 - link
Interesting, which card and OS are you using? I've never had this happen and all I use for audio is HDMI, PC HDMI -> TV -> Optical out to surround sound.Willardjuice - Monday, February 18, 2013 - link
Yep I have the exact same issue. In addition, nvidia has never fixed the "silent stream bug". Hdmi audio is the one place amd definitely beats nvidia in (at least wrt drivers).Kevin G - Monday, February 18, 2013 - link
Do these drivers have any references to GK110 based parts?lmcd - Monday, February 18, 2013 - link
Up to 5% or 105% performance?I'd consider 5% a pretty huge regression.

Fixed, Mr. Snark. :pandy5174 - Tuesday, February 19, 2013 - link
These versions all require additional 12mV (default 1.0V) to OC gtx460 to 850-1700-4000 and hence lead to 3~5C increase in temperature.
