Nvidia has released the latest Nvidia GeForce 320.18 WHQL driver, which is a GeForce Game Ready driver for Metro: Last Light providing up to 10% faster performance and Microsoft WHQL certification. Although not strictly Indie/Retro related, you will need the latest drivers in most situations even if this one is for Metro. However to note, I'd recommend avoiding this driver for the time being as it can suffer from the same issue as the previous 320.x beta drivers, with system freeze ups being reported.
