Users around the web are reporting gigantic performance boosts, including myself, with these new beta drivers in the Crysis Beta. It is immediately noticeable before even loading up FRAPS... going from unplayable at the "Very High"-tweaked settings (max available in beta) and requiring usage at Medium settings to just-about-playable-smooth at the max ones.

Looks like nVidia's on the ball here!

EDIT: Personal numbers: 22-25ish outdoor fights to 42-46ish average with the 163.71's, and 60-65ish now indoors. Other games have seen a small boost as well.
