GeForce 310.70 WHQL claims impressive fps boast


Recommended Posts

I downloaded them last night but never got around to installing them. Was going to do so today. Will see if they are all they are cracked up to be.

Haven't these been out for a while? I installed them a few weeks back when I got my 680 (EVGA Classified)

In Beta probably yes, but official WHQL was definitely yesterday, Dec 17th. I tend to stick to WHQL myself these days so I know for certain it was yesterday. Congrats on the card BTW!

You are absolutely correct, this driver set is old. It was released as a WHQL candidate on December 4th and the exact same set was re-released yesterday WHQL certified.

How does nvidia keep improving performance of games? Are they coded kinda in a rush but then improve the drivers over time or what?

I'm not saying the gains are bad just I can't understand how they can keep improving the software to run faster :s

Tried it out this morning and had to downgrade, I could not get my monitor back to 1920X1200 it was maxed out at 1920X1080, kind of a weird issue, but my screen wasn't scaling correctly on top of that

Installed it on my 550TI since their site said it was the latest for it

Will test this when I get home on my GTX 650 Ti

i just ordered this card, but its not delivered yet.

does it use these drivers? its not listed in the pictures in the OP?

also what do you think of it? I bought the EVGA GTX650 Ti SuperSuperClocked

EDIT: nevermind, checked nvidia site, these drivers support loads of cards lol (im a noob to graphics cards)

Nvidia cards have universal drivers.

I don't know about your card; I got a Gigabyte GTC 650 Ti. Im very pleased with it.

Downloading those drivers now.

so what difference does the WHQL make/what does it mean?

They were tested and approved by MS. They will always be the same as one BETA version as one of the BETA builds would have had to have been sent to MS for approval. It is generally the latest BETA, but not always.

    • Didn’t Dbrand once complain that Casetify was ripping off their designs a well? seems pretty bad of them to try and get around Valve’s copyright this way with that in mind.
    • Dbrand thought they could get away with this Steam Machine case, Valve disagreed by David Uzondu Image via Dbrand Dbrand has cancelled its highly anticipated Companion Cube enclosure for the Valve Steam Machine, which it teased back in November of last year with a concept render and sign-up page, because it did not ask Valve for permission first before manufacturing the case. According to Dbrand, it took the "backwards approach" of building the product first before asking for permission from the copyright holder. Seven months of work went into the project, requiring over a thousand engineering hours from the design team. Workers developed forty-four sets of injection molding tools, making a unique mold for each sub-component of the crate. When the Companion Cube went live on Monday last week, it, according to Dbrand, quickly became the second-fastest-selling product in the company's fifteen-year history, racking up orders for hundreds of thousands of units. Customers eagerly bought the $129.95 deluxe edition or the bare-bones $99.95 version, which the manufacturer cheekily branded as the "Poverty Cube". It was around this time that the legal eagles at Valve descended on the accessory maker with a formal demand. The developer pointed out that the iconic block design remains protected intellectual property from the game Portal, so unlicensed sales had to stop. Dbrand said that all its pleas to salvage the project with the Valve team, including proposals to run a properly licensed release under official terms "with their blessing", fell on deaf ears, so it had no choice but to obey and remove every trace of the product from the internet. If you bought the enclosure, the company said that banks will process your refund by the end of this week, but if it still hasn't arrived in your account by then, you should not hesitate to contact support. The Steam Machine itself is a high-performance console that Valve designed directly to bring PC gaming into the living room. It was announced on 12th November 2025 (the same day Dbrand announced the Cube) and runs on the Linux-based SteamOS, the same OS that powers the Steam Deck. As for the price, due to the shortage of memory and storage chips, the hardware cost landed much higher than people were expecting, starting at $1,049 for the 512 model (without a controller) or $1,128 with the new gamepad. The premium 2 TB model pushes those prices even higher, selling at $1,349 for the standalone console and hitting $1,428 if you want the bundle.
    • It's listed #399.99 on Amazon, per your link. It's not $299.99.
