I've noticed that both 320.18 and 320.49 are both very unstable drivers for me. BF3 crashes and freezes, games like metro ll randomly stutter and crash. 314.22 fixes everything for me. Anyone having similar problems?

314.22 was the last solid driver for Nvidia for most people. However 325 and 326 drivers seem to be nearly as good.

I had a few driver freezes with my overclock on the 314's when playing BF3. On the 320 set i've had zero crashes. Overclock seems more stable for me but it will vary between set ups i guess.


Sorry Boozad - I gave you thanks by mistake - was using phone in bed at time of post. I removed the thanks as it seemed a bit 'weird' :laugh:

Recently updated to the 320.49 on my 580 SOC reluctantly. However I have to say I haven't had any issues with it yet and I can OC the card a bit more as well.
