and now 310.61 Beta is available:

GeForce 310.61 drivers are a minor update from GeForce 310.54 drivers with improved compatibility for PlanetSide 2 and Hitman: Absolution.

I wouldn't be surprised if other things have changed too through

Claggy

Well, since I have neither of those games, I think I will skip this update.

Now if it had an update for Assassins Creed III.........

This is just an observation and I can not back it up with anything solid at the moment, but after upgrading to 310.70 my 660TI seems to be crunching WU's by 2 minutes faster on average.  Yet my 570 in the same rig appears to be unchanged - is anybody else seeing this with Keplers or is it just a fluke ???


310.70 Beta now available

There are many other file versions - for 32-bit OSs, for Windows XP, for notebook GPUs - make sure you get the right one.

I've already purchase a replacement PC for my daughter and wish to work with it with BOINC, now the fact:
(still not arrived home)

AMD APU A10
AMD HD 7770

supposed that with new drivers I had to switch off the Crossfire feature.

how the system would recognise in which card work for different projects?? e.g. SETI, Collatz, Distrigen there would be no problem as both are capable to compute but Milkyway would be only in HD7770 as being double precision.
Over the sailors' graves never groves grass.

Cheers all / Corsair.

From APP SDK 2.8 release notes:

Quote
Driver support for 7xx generation GPUs is EOL. AMD drivers no longer support 7xx generation
GPUs; this includes support for ATI Radeon™ HD and ATI Mobility Radeon™ HD 4000 series
devices, ATI FirePro™ V8750, V8700, V7750, V5700, V2750, ATI Mobility FirePro™ M7740,
and AMD FireStream™ 9270, 9250.

Also:

Quote
It is necessary to install Catalyst 12.10 graphics drivers prior to installation of SDK 2.8. Vital
components of AMD's OpenCL solution are now contained within the drivers.

This means no APP SDK 2.8 based SETI apps for now.

Maybe because of Claggy's post in AMD forums? ;) He provided quite big list of leftovers... hope AMD will try to fix that.
