    It also has a profile for file desktop, explorer, skype, WMC, flashplayer, etc,.. imo this shouldn't be a problem.
    Games obviously have higher priority so it will use that profile when its running, well at least it makes sense.



    EDIT: as HeavyHemi said, guess we posted at the same time lol ^

    yes I would like to see proof of that please

    EDIT: I actually was reading the release notes for 353.30 and it was mentioned the optimizations are included:

    "Implements optimizations and bug fixes that provide increased performance for Kepler-based GPUs. " page 9

    True, but Chrome might not like it when certain game profiles are running, so there might still be a conflict of sorts. Just wondering what's causing all those crashes people are reporting, that's all. I'm curious if it also happens on older versions of Chrome.

    I myself haven't had any TDR or other crashes with the 353.38 drivers so far and I've been running Afterburner again for the custom fan profile and Logitech G19s LCD monitoring as well. I hope it remains that way.

    Played The Witcher 3 with these for 2 hours now. No more white flashes in game with TDR errors in event viewer, basically a TDR crash with white screen in game.

    I never had the Chrome crashes, use Firefox instead.

    Much faster and smoother than the 347.88 drivers on my system, got rid of the irritating stutter in TW3 for me. Needs more testing, but keepers so far.

    Note: I don't use overclocking software, so can't comment on that.

    So far so good.

    At first I thought the driver stopped responding crashes were Chrome specific then I had Firefox crash on me the other day (driver stopped responding) with .12 drivers. The trigger seemed to be, first play a gaming session, close game, open Firefox/Chrome, leave the pc to idle for a while, enough for power states to relax, then return to browsing. Crash happened many times that way.

    Never had the issue you talk about. I had no crashing in browsers with the 353.06 or .30 drivers. I did have TDR's in game with the 353.06 and .30's though. Error; nVidia driver has crashed and recovered, with a error code 13 in event viewer. In The Witcher 3, screen would flash white for a split second, then I would check event viewer there would be another TDR error. The 347.88 did not have these errors in event viewer, and nether do the 353.38's.

    No issues with these so far.

    Mine has been doing TDR's still on GTX960 & GTX580 systems with these drivers, though it's MUCH more rare than the other drivers (2-3 times in a 10 hour period). Neither system is running PrecisionX or running hot/oC'd etc....happens with Firefox, Chrome & Adobe CC 2015 apps... (with GPU accel enabled that is).

    AB overlay don't have to be active for AB polling to work - it works in the background as well. Do you by any chance play in a borderless/window? Have you tried full screen?

    Having purple artifacts with these in TW3... usual gamebed, rolling back to 353.30 fixes this

    I have had more problems with Nvidia drivers this year then ever before.

    The quality has taken a nosedive :(

    I can confirm that these drivers fixed the TDR issues, those who continue to have one on this driver, how are you guys uninstalling and installing the new drivers. Could be the method thats causing the issue.

    Everything works fine so far since ~50+ hours ago. Constantly Chrome with twitch/youtube and some game on second monitor. Perhaps it's random again for someone but for me it's fixed.

    Switched cards in pcie slots and started getting artifacts ... one of my cards is bad which is why I had the freeze/reboots issue with the computer. Replaced card with spare and can boot into windows again. Will try 353.38's again since people in general seem to be having success!

    Sorry, but many people, myself included, avoided the problem by switching hardware acceleration OFF. No more TDR. That is not to say some didn't still have the problem, but you have to go back to the post I was responding to to understand why I wrote what I did. Now with this new driver we are able to switch back to the default, hardware acceleration ON. No point to disabling hardware acceleration now.
