Best Nvidia driver for Battlefield 3

the latest one will always be the best.

the last 3 have all been pretty decent with about 1% separating them so any of em will do the job well enough.

I liked 295.73 the best personally.

Try 301.xx. I tried it, and I was pleased. Although I stick with 267.85, since most of my older games doesn't run as good with 301.24.

i have read that these new drivers 301.xx have some problems and i would like to wait until the beta period finishes and they release the driver with its problems fixed.

i have the 285.62 drivers now, do i have to do a clean install of a newer driver or can i just install it without even uninstalling the 285.62?

You're using 285.62?
Those are the worst that I've ever had till now.

Yes, it's always best to do a clean install of your drivers, unless you have made some profiles for some games. Have you?
No, you can't update or revert your drivers without un-installing the current ones.

Ok thanks. i havent created any game profile so its ok.

I use 296.10 (the most current WHQL driver) and I haven't had any problems that I had with memory leakage that occurred with the earlier WHQL and beta drivers.

I also stick with 296.10. The last 301 gave me a very bad framerate.
