Nvidia 320.18 Drivers seem to be problematic

I know I had major graphical glitches/artifacts after upgrading, had to rollback to 314.22 and everything is fine

I'm still having problem with 314 also, but less than 320.

Bf3 would artifact to purple/black/blue hell.

I've had some similar problems in Metro: Last Light and BF3. I thought my OC was just unstable...

Worst drivers I've used so far, I reverted back and don't regret it.

No problems on my end with 320.18. No driver crashes, artifacts, overheating or issues with any games I play.neatfeatguy

do you play BF3? that's the only game i noticed a problem

A good example.

Except I haven't had these artifacts on 320.18.  I had them with 320.14 (beta).  So according to others, it hasn't been fixed.

i have not had any drivers issue with 320.18

I had to also revert back to 314.22. I was getting a flashing screen and bf3 artifacts.

314.22 are excellent.

Im running 320.14 with no problems and increased performance.

Yeah I logged 130 hours, and only the latest drivers that are sending it to unplayable hell.

Do you think it's DICE screwing it up with patches/updates? Lately, the game lags quite a lot and hasn't been smooth for a while. They're probably preoccupied with BF4.Elann2008

I heard from the bf3 forums that there 0 updates from here on out which makes sense since all the expansions are released and bf4 is not too far. Knowing EA they would want to Dice to release on time.

The lag could be the client side. Their servers were down a lot lately, they keep blaming on ddos attack each time lol.

Whats your id on origin anyway? I need a medic!

Hmm, weird.

I don't have problems with 320.18 as of yet.

I had to also revert back to 314.22. I was getting a flashing screen and bf3 artifacts.

314.22 are excellent.

Problem i have is that the Nvidia control panel is not in the bottom task bar any more on desktop or in the customize task bar. Any one else have this problem?.

Hmm i haven't had any issues in games but i got two random bsods ever since i installed these drivers.

it's been replaced with Geforce Experience

Because of the artifacting problems with the 320 drivers I even sent my graphics card for warranty and they made me pay 30e because it didn't have any problems with it and made them waste time.

Needless to say that I'm pretty pissed because of said drivers.

I've found that the last few sets of Nvidia drivers have been increasingly flakey on my 560 Ti SOC.  

artifacts in metrolast light on the reciever cover of the saiga 12. Also explosions in War Thunder are black pixelated blocks /missing textures. Been that way since they beta driver.

If they arent beta drivers you have every right to complain. If they are beta drivers, then it is your fault for downloading beta drivers.

nope, they are the WHQL official drivers

I don't see how any of this is possible since nvidia has flawless drivers.

And I thought only AMD had driver issues:roll:,

The feedback thread for these drivers on the Geforce forums is almost 70 pages long. Ouch.
