280.19 Beta is now up on GeForce.com, it will probably make an appearance on Nvidia.com soon.

Yup, arrived this very moment.

Thank you Tomislav. First post updated. :)

Certainly took quite some time, and what's with all the 3D love? Seems that's all it is. Reading mixed bag results on these from other places.

I've held off on these for the moment.

Lot of users reporting up and down GPU spikes with Firefox and it's HA, and just idling on desktop introduced by this set. Some on about it bringing back the 59hz and Windows logo flicker bugs back, and higher temps/fans coming on higher frequently also.

The main Nvidia guy had said these were going to be re-released as WHQL in just a few days , but it sounds as if he's accepted some of these bugs and they're going to work on them - hopefully.

that's good to know, thanks Aaron :)

I've gone back to 275.33 and my temps, just browsing, have dropped 10c!

Shit, I hope not. It's a buggy driver

Sticking with 275.33 here.

There's a bug that cranks the clocks to full 3D when using HWA in browsers with the 280.xxx drivers
