GTX 780 Performance Issues in Yosemite

[bigkahuna360]

It gets heavy stuttering (frames drop by up to 50% every second and a half or so) and in other games minor graphical errors. That's on top of the lower performance I'm getting compared to Windows. I'm running 10.10.2, fully updated, and full QE/CI enabled. It boosts up to full 1110MHz in both games, and I know it's stable.

Installing the latest web drivers causes my installation to crash. That may be due to the security update though. It would get past the bootloader then black screen and reboot.

Any ideas as to what's wrong or how to fix drivers?

EDIT: It turns out, I do not have Security Update 2015-003 1.0.

So I think I may have found out whats causing the stuttering. People came to the conclusion that Yosemite and Mavericks are not caching textures on the GPU's VRAM, resulting in poor performance with games that have a high polygon count.

Hopefully with this information, someone can make a fix for this.

Update! InsanelyMac has notified me with a new driver from Nvidia and it fixes this issue!

See here for the driver at TonyMac.
