NVIDIA Releases GeForce 388.31 WHQL Game Ready Drivers
NVIDIA today has released the latest version of their GeForce Game Ready Graphics Driver. The new 388.31 drivers are optimized for the latest AAA games, "Star Wars Battlefront II," and "Injustice 2". NVIDIA has also added the corresponding 3D Vision profiles for both titles. In addition, they've included SLI profiles for Star Wars: Battlefront II and EVE Valkyrie - Warzone as well. According to them, the 388.31 drivers improve Destiny 2 performance by up to a staggering 53%. However, the more notable fixes include the micro-stuttering issue when using GPU monitoring tools to monitor GPU power and the driver not picking up GeForce GTX 1080 on the Alienware Amplifier.DOWNLOAD: NVIDIA GeForce 388.31 WHQL

Edit: Users over on guru3d have the consensus that these drivers do in fact take care of micro-stutter. Also, they made some huge gains in Destiny 2:
FineWine is a horrible term though, I just prefer dodgy at launch.
