nVidia has been limited to only Core17 projects and earlier in Folding@Home due to issues with OpenCL. I can't wait to see if this driver resolves those issues; it has been a long wait for fully-working OpenCL on Maxwell.
Wow, that seemed like an important message, a new driver branch with all unknown features except for OpenCL 1.2. What about the stable 347.88 driver release that finally fixes that dreaded DSR bug?
The platform reports "OpenCL 1.2 CUDA 7.0.0 FULL_PROFILE" However on my hardware it reports "OpenCL 1.1 CUDA" for the device I only have a GT 610 Could someone that has installed this driver and has a latest video card please run GPU caps viewer and confirm that the actual device has 1.2 support? Until then I don't believe it.

I'm slightly confused. Ryan did you mean to refer to R350 as being a new branch or R349 as it is written in the article?Ryan Smith - Friday, April 3, 2015 - link
This is the 106th driver in the R349 branch. Hence 350.05.tuxfool - Friday, April 3, 2015 - link
Damn on the cutting edge here, OpenCL 1.2. I suppose that now with Vulkan they have no real choice to not support 2.x.LoneWolf15 - Friday, April 3, 2015 - link

It might take them another 2 years to catch up to AMD's OpenCL 2.x current support.Dorek - Saturday, April 4, 2015 - link
Still crashing every time in BF4 after this driver. I'm going to roll-back to pre-Hardline drivers.MrSpadge - Tuesday, April 7, 2015 - link
Wow, finally OpenCL 1.2! That will be a significant relief for cross-platform OpenCL apps which were previously held back by nVidia.moozoo - Sunday, April 12, 2015 - link

I am still crashing in Dragon Age: Inquisition also so this patch didn't help at all just like the 6 patches to the game have not helped at all.
