    These drivers are so crap and the BF4 beta is unplayable in SLI. I'm not going to bother buying it, until there is a fix.

    I have Windows 8. I get 100% CPU usage but my GPU's aren't showing a smooth transition, hence why the game is stuttering and not smooth (All ultra, 4MSAA 1080p, 100% Resolution, 72 FOV). I get better performance in Metro Last Light with 2XSuperSampling and that game blows BF4 in the graphics department.

    Also my PC does not come out of hibernate, the screen just flashes and honestly the only way to get my machine working again is to unplug it from the wall. A reboot does not cut the mustard unfortunately.

    Also my CMS Lite (CCTV monitoring) software no longer displays my cameras, luckily I can view them from my Android device or laptop but not my gaming rig since I installed these drivers.

    Is nvidia aware of these crashing while browsing the web watching youtube videos issues? When is the next driver coming? Will they fix this crap?

    DICE released a patch today to supposedly address CPU issues. I didn't notice any improvement. You need to lower your mesh settings and set forcereadahead to 0.

    Also try with default driver settings. 320.49 might be better for your setup.

    I did a completely fresh install of 331.40, I used the Nvidia driver remover and still encounter this crashing while using flash, it makes the screen freeze, then turn black then it will come back to my desktop.

    Is there any fix to this? Maybe I'll use Firefox for the time being?

    This was taken post patch and changing mesh does nothing I'm afraid.

    So is there any news on when us 560ti Twin frozr or even just 560ti user will have a workable driver or are Nvidia gonna just keep ignoring us and hopefully we will just go away, See we don't care Nvidia it was only us who put our faith into you as a company when we purchased our cards in the first place, The very least you could do is acknowledge to us there is an issue:banana: :stewpid:

    I been using the driver for a while now, I haven't had any crashes at all while watching videos. I haven't had any game issues as well, so this driver been working great for me.

    My rig has the exact same problem as yours in BF4. SLI gets such poor utilization and constantly drops FPS so that it is completely unplayable. 40-60% GPU utilization with wildly eratic framerates.

    Played for an hour today, ran flawlessly with pretty high GPU utilization.

    For some weird reason the fps limiter in these drivers as accessed by Nvidia Inspector stops working after a period of time. It's happened in Splinter Cell Blacklist and Dead Island Riptide for me so far...

    The limiter in Precision/Riva Statistics Server works fine.

    Odd.

    I'm running three GTX Titans on an X79 Extreme11 motherboard with a Core i7 4960X. OS is Windows 7 Ultimate.

    About 1 out of 5 times when I boot the PC up it will show "Starting Windows" and then either go to a black screen or boot into windows with default VGA driver loaded. In that case it will show exclamation marks next to each Titan in the control panel. Previous drivers never did this. What's going on?

    This is what I see in Event Viewer:

    Edit: Figured it out. It's not a driver problem. When I cleaned my PC a few weeks ago I forgot to use the lock on the PCI-E slot for the second Titan. Over time the small vibrations in the PC must have knocked it loose enough to constantly disconnect. I would be playing a game and would see TDR messages at any random time. Taking all of the cards out and putting them back in fixed the issue. Made sure all of the locks on the PCI-E slots were in place.

    How much time, roughly? I haven't had this happen and I always use the limiter.
    I did not import any old profiles this time around though and I don't use any of the pre-made options from the drop-down menu.
