Check for yourselves if it seems to good to be true. This new beta driver uses a new form of rendering for nvidia cards and DX 11. Without going in to too much detail it manages to shift the workload around in a way that frees up a lot of resources. In my case I am gaining around 20fps at 1080p.

Turn on weather effects before this driver and the game was in the 40's with 8 ai cars. Now it stays north of 60 almost all of the time no matter time of day or weather. I am shocked with the difference and I suggest everyone try this driver. It is shows big increases for many other games. It's nvidia's answer to the ATI mantle API and it's off to a killer start !
 
Just checked the Project Cars forums. I am not alone it seems. This driver helps in cpu bound situations under dx11. Some are reporting gains in DX9 as well. The driver can be found on Nvidia's web site or downloaded from www.guru3d.com
