Sniper Elite V2 and Total War: Rome 2 have seen performance boosts of about 40 percent with the new driver. Nvidia’s current GeForce driver, version 335.23’s performance has been compared with that of 337.50. Performance against previous GeForce drivers In multi-GPU configurations, the new driver benefits from improved scaling: The test bed used is Intel Core i7 3560K at a resolution of 1920×1080. They compare their flagship GTX 780Ti’s performance against AMD’s R9 290X. Synthetics shared by Nvidia claim performance benefits of 7 – 16 percent on single GPU performance for DX11 games. Later, Nvidia stresses on optimising their drivers for optimum DirectX 11 performance. Nvidia did share their benchmark numbers for both single and SLI setups.

Huge claims these, one we’re in the process of testing. The 337.50 drivers, as claimed by Nvidia, increase performance of single GPU setups by 64% and SLI by 71%.

It sounds funny, after all, they’re just GPU drivers, but Nvidia seems to be really banking on them, and for good reason. Nvidia called for a big press meeting to announce their 337.50 Beta Drivers, it was the first time I was attending a webinar for the launch of a new drivers. We consider Nvidia to be generally more proactive that the competition when it comes to driver and feature support, and that trend seems to continue.
