    Enjoy your broken drivers, then. The NVIDIA team has explicitly stated that the patches break more things than they fix!

      Well, yeah... the hardware is completely mismatched.

        It's working fine in Kubuntu 13.10.

                Yes, this is what I've done few minutes ago. It seems my GTX 660TI was nearly as fast as yours GTX 680: 51 vs 58fps in Unigine Valley.

                  The patch doesn't break all applications. It's likely that Unigine Valley isn't affected (or you just didn't notice the ways in which it was affected).

                    I don't know if it's common situation, but my GPU temperature raised to 80 degrees Celsius.

                      That said, even though I have that, I'm using Intel drivers at the moment. Hooray for NVIDIA not supporting kernel 3.11...
                      My linux desktop (running a Mex 12.10 distro) died like 4 months ago. For some reason I kept trying other things instead of just replacing the graphics card.
                      I guess the long work hours were just burning me out lowering my IQ or something. Well anyways a few days ago after seeing phoronix's tests with the GTX 650 I checked the prices online and thought. "hmmm, maybe I'll just replace the graphics card and see if it fixes my desktop."

                      So I bought an open box free shipping gtx 650 for $101. It just arrived a few hours ago.

                      I installed it and everything works now. I have my linux desktop back!!
                      Checked Nvidia Xserver settings and it says it's a GTX 660 and it has 2048 ram. I'm going huh?? So I checked the paperwork that came with it (it says gtx 660) and the picture on it of the connections matches the connections on the one I just installed.

                      Shhhhhhh
