I had initial hopes that the 780M in my MSI laptop might get a refresh on graphics drivers. But running the beta software shows otherwise. Maybe a later beta release will add it.

It's just nVidia's latest sea water cooled GPU....

I wonder what is the point of releasing security update when in order to install and run that driver you need to run in test signing mode?

I don't know which exploits this update fixes (perhaps it is something easy to exploit by just viewing an image on the screen in your browser), but having test signing enabled allows drivers signed with arbitrary certificates to be loaded on your system which to me seems way more insecure then just having one unpatched driver.
