    Idk about people saying they are having no performance impact.
    Did you test the benchmark before and after installing the new driver?
    I did and I lost over 1k score.
    Just saying, I hope the people saying they are getting no performance impact are actually doing some testing, to back that up.

    A driver bricking cards? Idk, I've heard of it happening but you never knew who was doing what to their card when it died.
    Now you mix overclocking software with a new driver, plus some voltage tweaks.
    Yea, I can see that leading to some issues that could break a card.

    Please fill out this feedback survey to get proper notification with Nvidia reguarding the poor performance with this driver and this benchmark..and other things. The more people report the issue the more likely this will be fixed in a future driver.

    Thanks for this post! I just ran my benchmark with the new driver, and I lost almost 1000 score.

    Oh, and I run the GTX690.

    Installed MSI Afterburner just to look at GPU temp. It was idling at 39 and the Benchmark drove it up to 69. I'd been reading that anything under 90 was healthy enough. Most probably it's not overworked because it's being told what to do by a 2.66GHz Core2Duo^^

    I'm testing a friends 550TI Seeing if its his PSU or his card, I installed the new drivers 320.18. I run myself a 260 GTX (not the 448 core one) and I can score 4900 on high settings, with the 550TI it ran MUCH smoother but scored only 3900. Funny but okay.

    Will download other drivers after testing other games out first.

    Wow, Dhalmel, thanks! I was in the middle of some website work when the new driver notification popped up, so I wasn't able to update. I'll stay with 314.22 for now.

    My GTX 460 thanks you!

    Thanks for the update.
    Think I'll stick with the older ones for now.
