Nvidia 270.51 Beta Available, adds update notification

[SugarJ]

Nvidia has released their latest beta drivers, which greatly improve Dragon Age 2 performance among other things. However, the most important thing added is update notification. You now have the option to be notified when new drivers are released, including optional beta release driver notification!

From Nvidia's website:
This is a new feature in Release 270 and later drivers. NVIDIA Update keeps your PC up-to-date with the latest NVIDIA drivers by notifying you when a new driver is available and directing you to the driver on nvidia.com. When you install a Release 270 or later GeForce driver from nvidia.com, you will be presented with the option to install NVIDIA Update.

Drivers are available here: GeForce.com - Get the Most Out of Your GPU

• Up to 461% in Dragon Age 2 (SLI 1920x1200 8xAA/16xAF, Very High)
• Up to 241% in Dragon Age 2 (1920x1200 4xAA/16xAF, Very High)

That's quite the improvement, i'll have to install the beta drivers and see if i get better frames pushing it on higher graphic settings in nvidia surround.

Amazing to see the frame rate increase on the setting i had (high with no AA) and slowly increasing it up, definitely impressive Nvidia in writing some drivers that immensely improve the performance of some games that prior lacked it.

Wow. Update notification. It's almost like we're in the 21st century.
