NVIDIA Outs GeForce 344.60 WHQL Game Ready Driver

btarunr · Nov 4, 2014

While AMD launches WHQL-signed drivers every three or so months, NVIDIA seems to be making a habit of launching one ahead of every major game release. The company's new 344.60 WHQL "Game Ready" drivers, released today, come just in time for the year's biggest shooter, Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare. In addition, the driver comes with an updated PhysX System Software (version 9.14.0702), CUDA (version 6.5), and GeForce Experience (16.13.56.0). Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare doesn't support Windows XP, so NVIDIA didn't bother with an update for that OS. Grab your driver from the links below.

The new phys x software keeps failing to install on my system

Not that I care or play any games that support it.

Time to hit nvidia.com. Downloading now.

Installed, played some Mass Effect 3 multiplayer and started a Beyond Earth game. No issues so far.

Lots of screen tearing on a GTX 660

AlienIsGOD · Nov 4, 2014

anyone using DSR noticing mouse lag at all? Diablo 3 with 4K res DSR makes my mouse lag out but not the game itself. Lowering to 1600P did rectify said mouse issue though.

Just did a fresh install, reverted back to Windows 7 x64 and used this new driver. Getting perfectly smooth WoW performance on ultra with stock CPU settings (a measly 3.2Ghz dual core) now whereas my Windows 8.1 install previously had issues running it smoothly with a very stable 4.2 Ghz overclock, interesting. Adaptive Vsync working perfectly. Driver looks to have great IQ as well.

Going to hammer this driver today with a few diffrent engines and API's and will report back with my findings.

I knew that someone would say that

yes vsync is on

lol, might be worth doing a clean install perhaps, then? You're gonna say you've already done that, hehe...

Hopefully it's not some intractable bug somewhere.

I notice screen distortion on my UI when I play WoW with DSR.

yup, that's what the changelog says: "Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare – SLI and stereo profiles added"

I am seeing tons of issues with the new driver on Nvidia. You might want to check before you install this.

Your post would be so much more helpful if you actually bothered to be more descriptive and list the 'tons of issues' that you may be having.

We arent mind readers you know.

D007, you dont have any credibility if you dont have anything to back it up.

Like I said, check the forums. Why do I need to backup what is already there?
Not my job to do nvidias job for them.
Read for yourself: https://forums.geforce.com/default/...whql-display-driver-feedback-thread-11-4-14-/

Blackscreens, timeouts, stuttering, games not working, working badly, requiring work arounds, sli not working right in games.
They had to release 4 drivers already for the 9 series because the drivers are such shite. It's been out like a month.
I actually read that entire topic before I posted.

Did any of you actually read it or was it just easier to try and discredit my credibility?

Sounds like you are the one who need some credibility if your idea of doing thorough research is just saying people have no credibility.

would it of been life threatening for you just to add a link or be more descriptive? Also when you say 'forums' or 'forum' people will think theres a thread on TPU. However if you say 'Nvidia forums' then things start to make a little more sense instead of sending people on a wildgoose chase around TPU.

While it may not be your job to do Nvidia's job for them (thank the lord) It wont exactly kill you to either be more descriptive or if not then at least just say "it has issues" and throw up a link rather than just throw it out there as it makes it meaningless unless you were the one having issues yourself.

afaik TPU doesnt have an Nvidia rep - so we try to help those we can however we can and if we can.

All I said was "You might want to check before you install this."
And my credibility gets attacked..
That is beyond stupid..
I tried to help people by letting them know there are a lot of known issues.
Where else should they check?
I thought it was common sense to check nvidia forums for this specific driver.
I said "check" not "take my word for it"
So much for trying to help.

100% right

The 1st think came to my mind (after reading your 1st post) is to check the obvious place: Nvidia forums /drivers feedback it's all there every time.

JTristam · Nov 5, 2014

You guys think I should install the driver? I don't play Call of Duty Advanced Warfare so I'm not sure if I should download and install it. Any driver issue I should know regarding Titans in SLI?

Aderbas · Nov 5, 2014

Installed and play BF4. I get this:

Like I said.
Would it kill you to use common sense?
FFS I tried to help and all I seem to get around here, every time I try to help lately, is some cry baby BS from rager trolls.
You obviously can't help yourself if you don't know to check the forum.
So accept the help or don't
But stop trolling.
