It seems the newer the driver worse it performs (in game crashes) with my EVGA 660 Ti SC. Has anyone found a driver that works best with the 660 Ti & Win 8.1?

If you have an OC on your CPU + GPU you will have to do your OC again for the newer Nvidia drivers. They don't seem to like OCing too much. I would advise you to add some Vcore on your CPU before messing with you GPU's OC if any. One game i can say for sure crashes with the newer Nvidia drivers is CoD Ghosts. I had to raise my OC voltage offset from 4.7@ 0.090v to 4.7@ 0.155v for the game to run without crashing and this has been so since the 327.23 driver as i have remembered. 

 

So either try and older driver than the 327.23 driver or increase your CPU's Vcore and report back how it works for you.
