First time Nvidia mentioning Natural Selection 2 in any of the updates.

I don't recommend this driver if you've viewed the feedback thread there seems to be a massive amount of issues with a lot of titles

Have some random FPS drops in MechWarrior Online and Natural Selection 2 that require a full system reboot to fix. I would not reccomend it.

Hate to say it, but this tends to be the normal pattern on Nvidia Beta Drivers. Hell, for a while an entire batch of regular patches created problems. People were rolling back 10 patches to get stable outcomes.

As I have 0 ms waiting for GPU right now, I don't see the point in updating.

I'm still on 310.70 WHQL, as for this game the only thing that waits on ocassion is CPU; I have high hopes for big performance increases though. I heard luaJIT/openGL/DX11 styled ports are in the works

I'm just happy they mentioned it, been a long time since i've seen it in driver patch notes.

[nickwithtea]

Yep I just tested this drivers and noticed issues with mouse input, reverted back to 310.70 whql

Not sure what it was, going to assume input delay issues. (related to max pre render frames) so avoid this driver update, I should probably report my issue on the nvidia forums but such a hassle to register

[Kainnemesis]

Well this is a beta and i rarely get any type of issue from Nvidia unless im being stupid and modifying files lol.

My experience with Nvidia is to wait till the next batch beta is out before updating to the current.

Does this mean there is a performance increase or is it only for the SLI profile? It says "performance optimizations and SLI profiles", but is it both or just one of them?

[Kainnemesis]

i got a slight performance increase for ns2. im guessing it both

[100% Recycled Awesome]

Hmmm. Getting plenty of C++ crashes on 246. Got more crashes in one week than in 3 months.

[Bazlow]

This is probably just an SLI profile for NS2 instead of performance optimizations, title suggests it's just performance optimizations for Metro: Last Light.
