Fixes some new games and adds OpenCL 1.2 support

Nvidia has released its newest Geforce 350.05 driver which addresses some issues in recent games, and adds OpenCL 1.2 support.

While not being an official beta driver release, you won't find the new Geforce 350.05 driver via Nvidia's usual driver release support pages, but it still brings some important crash fixes in case you are playing some of those new games, including Battlefield: Hardline and Dragon Age: Inquisition.

In addition to fixing these two games, Nvidia has finally added support for OpenCL 1.2 with this hotfix driver. Confirmed by Anandtech, it appears that Nvidia has finally decided to support OpenCL 1.2 as it has previously focused only on its CUDA ecosystem, while both Intel and AMD have been pushing for OpenCL 1.2 since 2013 and AMD even supports OpenCL 2.0 since Catalyst 14.4 driver.

As noted, since the Geforce 350.05 Hotfix drier is not an official beta release you can only find it at Nvidia's customer support portal and it is available in both 32-bit and 64-bit versions for desktops and notebooks.
