Nvidia Releases New Battlefield 3, Skyrim Beta Drivers

Marcus Yam served as Tom's Hardware News Director during 2008-2014. He entered tech media in the late 90s and fondly remembers the days when an overclocked Celeron 300A and Voodoo2 SLI comprised a gaming rig with the ultimate street cred.

  • Now you need to go back and re benchmark all the nvidia cards in your BF3 performance round up.

    So when are they going to fix the Firefox crash caused by 285.62? That's all I care about, so I can play BF3.

    To hell with this - not updating to beta. The last stable driver gave weird behaviour of temps after startup, so definitely not touching beta.

    This driver does nothing for skyrim...
    I'm getting performance issues, the frame rate drops alot from 60 to 40-50 and the gpu usage is between 50% and 80%

    Other than that the game is AMAZING :D

    I'm using a phenom II 955 3.8ghz oc + gtx560ti oc @ 1080p maxed
