Resident Newb
This is the latest release from China, China are usually the first ones to get the newest driver branch as they have a huge cyber cafe industry hence the need for more stable drivers that offer better performance at faster release intervals.

Installation instructions
Once you have downloaded the driver you want to use an extraction program such as WinRAR to extract these to a folder for easy installation i.e right click and extract to "347.26-icafe-win7-winvista-win8-64bit-international-whql" otherwise just clicking the .exe results in a failed installation as it's from another territory.
Note
The best way to install is to first unzip using either winrar or 7zip like shown in the video below -
Please do not install the included HD Audio, 3DVision or GeForce Experience on the initial installation, The included GeForce Experience driver is for Chinese territories only and will not work on US or EU machines, I have included a download link for the latest EU/US version below.
The 3DVision driver should also be installed afterwards if you need it from within the extracted folder after you have installed the main driver, For some unknown reason installing it along with the main driver causes issues and an installation failure.
Download the latest GeForce Experience from Here
Installation Note For Windows 8/8.1 Users
If you are installing this on Windows 8/8.1 please remember to disable driver signing, As this is from another territory Windows will not recognize the driver signature otherwise.
Follow the steps in this video below to disable driver signing on windows 8/8.1 before installing the driver -
If you are curious as to what exactly driver signing is, Microsoft have a short and detailed explanation of it Here
