2 drivers release only a few days apart.  I smell a bug somewhere.

Mostly the new release was intended to provide for the new GTX 980 Ti. I think if you try to install the last driver you will see the message "no supported GPU found." So, you expect another release in a week or so, as historically that has been what happens.

My philosophy is if your current drivers work fine. Leave them the hell alone.

Actually updated to these since I hadn't updated since December (from 347.09).  No glitches so far.  No change in performance noticed either (Elder Scrolls Online).  Using a GTX 980.

New drivers provided some better performance in Witcher 3 than the last version released on the 18th.

I can't stop playing that game.  :x
Performance does seem to be slightly better than the previous driver.  I only have an EVGA GTX 660, but to me the game seems a little smoother.

I actually backed off to version 347.88 due to problematic PhysX drivers.  I get a distinctive sort of freeze and crash to desktop that tips me off that its a PhysX issue in Elder Scrolls Online.  Same kind I used to get in Planetside 2. Two games which use vastly different game engines but have the same sort of crash.  Hasn't happened again since I went back to 347.88. 347.88 is the latest version to use the older PhysX driver.
