NVIDIA GeForce 358.50 WHQL

I don't beta play this game but I thought that it was using 0x080116F5 for SLI...,no?
Then I want to believe that a good SLI profile will come with full game release.

 

The only way you can get it is thru GFE

 

Anyone lost alot of performance in Firestrike and Valley while using these with a 980ti?

My brother in law now gets lower scores with that than i do with a single 970.

 

My Firestrike scores went up except for the PhysX scores which dropped slightly. Sorry, but I don't use Valley anymore.

I don't either, i had to redownload it to check.

Dropped from 16100 to 11300 with these drivers which is awful for a 980TI, he then reinstalled 355.98 and back to 16k.

Very strange.

 

what about actual games though?

 

GTAV and Metro seemed fine according to him.

A few frames here and there in synthetic benchmarks wouldn't cause him to bother, but losing around 40% performance suggest there is an issue somewhere, especially when it's two different benchmarks.

 

crashing in nearly every other game in star wars with these drivers. Not exclusive to star wars also. These drivers don't like high overclocks so another set of gimped drivers for oc's from nvidia it seems

 

Those pascal cards are coming soon, gotta nerf the 900 series gpu's. What's worse is the 700 series going to get the axe after.

I'll be getting a pascal Titan anyway. Skipping maxwell.

 

Sure. "Soon".

 

I recently upgraded from 2 780ti so I could give my kid the cards, never noticed anything fishy going on with kepler, had 2 sets of kepler cards, 680 sli and 780ti sli.

 

It's possible that simply something new in the drivers conflicts with benchmark apps, who knows though. not like he misses out on much in those 2 older games with older drivers.

 

Alright, so this driver is doing something weird. In BF4 I have ~20 FPS and ~20 GPU usage, however if I alt tab (playing in windowed mode) and go to another monitor my FPS jumps back to 100+ and GPU usage goes back to 99...

If I focus back on the game it drops again. So I get good FPS when I'm alt tabbed, but in game I get **** fps/usage.

Edit: Same with Witcher 3. While in game my GPU usage is <20% and my FPS sucks. If I alt tab my GPU usage goes to 99%


Did the Geforce Experience Upgrade first, then did a clean install/DDU both with the same result.

 

Reset your stock clocks, and try again. It solved this for me in EVERY game!

 

Rolled back to 355.98 and it's back to normal. Nothing else worked.

 

Yap me too, on 356.04.

 

He has just found out what it was, and apparently it's a gsync issue.

 

wddm 2.0 on gtx 760 and dx 12 on Fermi card (has support wddm 1.1 or seems Nvidia add wddm 2.0 support now).

 

Man Nvidia surely is dropping the ball with these drivers. It's funny because one of the reasons I switched from AMD to Nvidia was due to their abysmal drivers at the time, I guess that you're not safe from bad drivers no matter what.
