It's odd AnandTech more often seems to break news on NV driver releases than AMD. In fact, AMD's new WHQL approved Catalyst 13.9 drivers are also out today.
Did you read the part where Ryan says "Thanks to reader SH SOTN for the heads up"? I doubt Ryan is scouring the internet for exclusive Nvidia specific driver news. In fact, Anandtech as an AMD portal which has news on all things AMD, including driver releases.
hopefully they bring stability improvements to my GTX560, i have had nothing but grief this month trying to understand why windows was hanging all the time, and why i couldn't access one of my screens after. Only after trying all sorts of tests, and installing an old video driver started working again.
Ack! I have had the same issue with my EVGA GTX560 since I installed the latest drivers. I've been wondering why I'm getting video-related bluescreens in Win7-64bit. It sounds like I'm not the only one.
Wow I thought I am the only one having this problem. I received my GTX560 last week and the driver crashes or screen freezes all the time. I thought it was faulty and I almost returned it.
all drivers after 314.22 gave me nothing but headache. 314.22 work flawless for me, but all drivers after that have issue with a DLL (event log shows them). and i have freezes when browsing. the freezes are 2-4 seconds long. when i check the event log i see that at exactly that time some nvidia driver has caused a problem.
Those were fixed with a beta for me (326.80 on a GTX 770), so they should also be fixed in this one - at least if you're talking about the resume from standby issue after more than 24 hours of power-on time.
I had 3 560 Tis and they all had issues. Upgrading to a 580 resolved all the crashing. There was even a community outreach by Nvidia due to all the complaints of 560 Tis failing. It was an evil card.
I have had zero issues with my 560ti 448 core edition. Especially not the ones you guys are mentioning. But in all honesty, I have a different chip. So that could explain things. Running 327.23, Windows 8 Pro 64bit.

Thanks for the tip, hopefully they fix the issues with Guildwars 2 performance that their last microstutter fix beta drivers had.HighTech4US - Thursday, September 19, 2013 - link
Well the truth is that over time Nvidia releases many more VHQL drivers than AMD.And the latest AMD VHQL removes Frame Pacing so how is that even a good release?
Catalyst 13.9 drivers add WHQL certification, drop frame pacing

It's the same with these drivers. Just tested them. Encountered a lock-up/reboot in about 20 minutes. Went back to 314.22.Being stuck on a certain working driver isn't pleasant at all.

Same here - I updated and the driver crashed again.Gothmoth - Thursday, September 19, 2013 - link
i hope this fixes the hickups and freezes.all drivers after 314.22 gave me nothing but headache.
314.22 work flawless for me, but all drivers after that have issue with a DLL (event log shows them). and i have freezes when browsing. the freezes are 2-4 seconds long.

You don't say.560 Ti 448 has a GF110 core; A regular 560 is based on GF114. They are the same only in name.
