This driver adds support for
NVIDIA_DEV.1617 = "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980M"
NVIDIA_DEV.1618 = "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970M"
Note: these GPUs have other device IDs as those we mentioned 6 months ago:

NVIDIA_DEV.13D8 = "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970M"
Added support for:
NVIDIA_DEV.1288 = "NVIDIA GeForce GT 720"
NVIDIA_DEV.137A = "NVIDIA Quadro K620M"
NVIDIA_DEV.1617 = "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 980M"
NVIDIA_DEV.1618 = "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970M"
Thanks again Stefan for squirling these out
Here we have the new Geforce GTX 950M in action.
Using a very standard setup these days.
Would have been nicer and thinner with no DVD burner and no D-Sub port.
Comparing with my HP Envy 15k-200
Looks to have no backlit keyboaed, once you've tried this no going back.
No 11ac Wifi adaptor, again, no going back to 11n for me.
Looks like 8GB will be std setup, 16GB in a laptop of this class should be the norm.
mSATA, ouch, M.2 is now the norm and why go back.
This should be an OK laptop that should do well with most things.
I'm happy having the lesser speed Broaadwell CPU, with the 850M, I'll be out lasting this on battery

Competitor to the Gigabyte P15F v3 mentioned earlier, and probably a better choice, depending final pricing.
The above is an example from Sager NP6679 and the lower specced NP6659
Still uses a DVD writer, waste of space and thinness, but DSub connector is at least gone.

Windows 10 build 10049 is released, and there are some reports of gaming issues being resolved with it.
Installing it over the top of previous builds that you've been using might be problematic, but it works out the best to reformat the hard drive with a fresh installation of build 10041, then let build 10049 install over the top of that later.
The NVidia driver for build 10049 is still driver 349.90
Finally an updated driver from Toshiba
DriverVer = 01/13/2015, 9.18.13.4728
Latest WHQL HD Audio driver from Realtek just released
We have links to various versions including Dolby and WaveInstaller
Also non WHQL 6.0.1.7479 is there also to try if you like the very latest.
Reminder: Lenovo's server might fail with FDM
For most rigs Lenovo updated to 345.20 or 347.52
345.01
345.05
341.01
333.74 - newest R331 driver, if that branch makes you happy
Lenovo also provides BIOS updates that fix blue screen issue in Windows 7 when installing Nvidia driver. Check your actual system for that.
Big thanks to Stefan for finding these new GPU's:
