Sweet :p Does this affect mobility cards also or just the standard desktop ones (such as my 570 in my dad's new pc)

Can't find those drivers or any info about those drivers on Nvidia's site, I'd never install drivers from some dodgy site that uses facebook for commenting.

When i go through Nvidia and select my 570 for windows 7, either 32 or 64, its the same driver number 280.26, and the website you've linked states 285.38. Why would it not be released on their own website before some dodgy site gets hold of it? Sounds strange to me.

I went onto driver download, you choose your card etc, and the newest one on there was 8.9.11, and it's 280.26 not 285 as the link says.

I'd wait till its on the nvidia control panel on my desktop, that's normally pretty reliable.

DLing drivers from anywhere other than the manufacturer/affiliated site is just asking for trouble :D

You'd have to be pretty desperate to download half finished drivers for your GPU. BF3 isn't even out yet, to download performance increasing drivers in beta stage for a game which is itself in beta is just strange.

lol as always bf3 beta is still full of campers! I don't mind people defending routes/locations, but those crap players hiding around corners waiting for someone to run past really annoys me! There is no skill required for camping at all!

theres a couple choke points on the beta map that can be defended well if you had a claymore behind you but yes it is camping
