If you're not experiencing any problems with the current ones, I'd stick with them until you hear the new one's are fixed. Otherwise you'll end up having to downgrade back in the case of the new ones being glitchy

I just installed it today so i should just stick with the cd or is there any drivers that anyone can recommend?

Well if you have the new drivers installed already I suppose you could just proceed normally and if you start having problems just downgrade then

I just upgraded my drivers and I haven't had any problems yet. I use the exact same GPU as you (but probably a diff manufacturer).

EVGA 560ti owner here.
The latest two nvidia updates cut my frames in half. 0/10 would not recommend.

i too lost frames since i installed the new driver but wasnt sure whether it was the driver or not...lost about 120 from 180 -> under 60 ... not sure what else it could have been

I'm currently using 301.42 without any problems if you ever end up wanting to give that a try. The last time I updated a month or so ago the newer drivers caused graphic glitches in only TF2.

I updated to 310.90. Fucked up my TF2, all the lights are flickering like a rave party.

I had to go back 306.97 since apparently, everything above that update causes TF2 to flicker on DX8. If you feel like using DX9(Which will downgrade in performance but make stuff smoother), go for it.

Well I'm probably jinxing myself by saying this, but I updated my drivers and things went fine.

I'm using a GTX 460 and I rolled back to the 306.97 drivers as well which fixed the issue, all drivers newer than 306.97 broke TF2 for me in DX8.

I had to roll back to 306.97 on my 660Ti when using DX8 as well.
Funnily enough, when one of the flickers lasted about five seconds, I was rather pleased with the texture quality since I could clearly see straight across the map.

Nvidia Drivers lately have been pretty hit or miss depending on your luck. The new drivers just add graphical tricks like TXAA and what not and only affect mainly the 680 gtx and possibly the 670 gtx as well.

Heh yeah, it's pretty insane how the screwed up drivers make everything SO EASY to see because the texture colors are so bright and screwed up.

DX8 gets fucked up but besides that I got the new drivers for better performance in some other games. But then again, I'm not running DX8 anymore.
