Nvidia GeForce 326.41 Beta - Download & Discussion

Using this set for two days now and no problems so far.A very slight drop in performance compared to 326.19 but IQ is better so I'll take it as a given.Good driver!

 

Nvidia has confirmed that there is potentially an issue going on with 7 series cards and the 36 hour driver crash. You're running a 6 series and 5 series card, so maybe it's not affecting you, but there are definite driver problems with 760/770/780's since the 32x.xx drivers have been released.

Yes, I have tested on a E-VGA GTX 770 (standard clock), GTX 770 SC (ACX), Asus GTX 770 (standard clock), palit GTX 770 (standard clock). They all crash around the 36 hour mark. Tried my old GTX 570, no crashes. Went back to 314.22 for my GTX 770 SC, with modded inf, completely stable.

 

Lol, I don't think you understand what a T-72 is capable of. Either that or you're trolling.

 

I have this exact issue it drives me f**ing nuts lol

 

thank you for supporting israel
good luck with leave gpu working for 35 hours

 

working great on my gtx 660. glad they fixed u3 engine issues so quickly.

 

Yep, I can confirm the 24-36 hour crash still happening with 700 series and 32x.xx drivers. So perhaps Nvidia should not say "potentially" an issue to "definitely" an issue...

 

Strange, I never encountered this yet on GTX 780. Maybe just the 770 has the potential issue. Everything has been peachy.

 

Been running these without any problems and updated from 326.19 which also ran ok. I would not touch another 320 but these have been ok. Possibly the new card, think I will leave my second machine (670) on 14.22.

Hey Shayne, If I may ask, are you running your computer 24/7 and experiencing the "sleep-mode" (20-36 hour) crash?

Seeing you have a 770 series card, I was just curious.

 

I was very happy with these drivers under windows 7 64bit, there were a minor issue though, Browsers and some other applications insist to start spread out over the 3 monitors rather than the one in the middle, tonight also I had a total system freeze with 3 monitors go to sleep mode !

How is windows 8 with these drivers, is the surround mode fully functional now ?

 

I've had random app hangs in Saints Row 3 (2) , Just Cause 2 (lots), Take On Mars (1) and Metro LL (1). Nothing bad enough to make the games unplayable but still odd. I hope the next driver with fixes for the 36 hour thing will be better for me.

 

To all who care all the 326.xx drivers run fine on my rig but tomb raider 2013 is real choppy with bad sli scaling all other games are fine The 320.49 run tomb raider just fine I am running windows 8.1 pre

 

No sry 16 hours normal and 36 or so when downloading. My power options are such that I do not sleep. Blk screen saver is about it.

Regards

 

Interesting...

Okay, good to know. Thanks for the feedback.

P.S. Hate to do this to ya, but GO BLACKHAWKS! Although, don't know where your located in "the Great White North", but I do root for the Leafs in the Eastern Conference...

 

Are you running the latest patch for Tomb Raider?

 

It's not technically "sleep" as in power options, but more like going from idle on desktop to anything, such as opening a browser near the 36 hour mark of straight running. I've seen it happen as early as 24 hours, and as late as up to 46 hours.

 

Tomb raider really choppy here too, switching off exclusive full screen helps a bit

 

First of, TR has one of the ****tiest CPU optimizations to date.

 

Really? because if you see my PC spec, i'm getting max 44fps on Ultimate setting on 1050p
