The new driver that popped up on Microsoft Update brings some new strings as well and as far as we know, this is the first time that Nvidia's Geforce 300 series is mentioned in drivers.

The new strings contain eight new strings with, what appears to be, one desktop and seven different mobile GPUs. The desktop part is listed in NV_WHQL.inf as Geforce 310. The mobile parts start with Geforce 305M and Geforce 310M, two different Geforce GT 330M, Geforce GT 335M while the top offer should be Geforce GTS 350M and 360M.

Whether these new strings will just be rebrands or new GPUs is left to be seen but at least some new names have popped up.

Here is the full list of strings from the .inf file.
