Nvidia Drivers & FPS drop

[bluetorch (DayZ) 4]

Anyone else experienced FPS drop updating to the latest driver from nvidia?

My FPS dropped from 120 to 10-20 after i updated to GeForce 301.42 Driver.

So basicly i had to downgrade back to my older drivers to get my FPS back up.

Any ideas what could be the cause behind this?

Edit: My card details

Video Adapter NVIDIA GeForce GTX 580

Video Memory 1.50 GB

Screen Resolution 1680 x 1050

I had the same on my 550 GTX. I back dated to the version before 301.42 and my fps was back to the normal, too

I am currently using 304.79

Is that an issue ? (Deffective driver ?)

I'm using these drivers on my 560ti 448, was ok a week or so ago so I don't think it's a driver issue. I've had these drivers for a good couple months, since I first installed my card and it updated. Only had trouble with dayz over the last few days. I've made a post here,

Some seem to think it's a 1.7.2.5 issue with the last update. I'm gonna roll back to 1.7.2.4 and try that tonight. If I can find a server.
