The 337.50 driver supposedly boosted DirectX performance by a decent amount. For me, it was about a 25-30% increase in WoW with my GTX 680. If you're not CPU-limited, it will likely be a much smaller amount. The tradeoff was a drop in PPD, from about 100k to ~30k.

For the time being, I have sufficient performance in the games I play using 327.23, so I'm staying on that one for now.
