Nvidia launches new Battlefield 3 PC drivers

A new set of graphics card drivers from Nvidia are available today, promising to give PC users a hefty performance boost ahead of this week's Battlefield 3 launch.

The GeForce 285.62 WHQL drivers, up for download now, bundle in all the improvements and updates from the 285.27 and 285.38 betas, along with new SLI and 3D Vision profiles for a number of upcoming or recently released titles.

Nvidia reckons that the new drivers will bump Battlefield 3 performance on a GTX 560 by "up to 11%", and also recommends them for Rage and Batman: Arkham City.
