Nvidia Geforce Driver 368.81 Download & Discussion

Thank you. Installing.

 

Branch is older than 368.69, at least the name...

 

Hey TJ, whats the driver like on your 980ti? I'm still on 365.19. So much going on with drivers hate to switch for nothing. Just curious.

 

980ti with an AMD cpu, that's a weird combo if I ever saw one. poor 980ti.

 

Can someone on 1070/1080 check DPC latency - fixed/no? Can't install these right now

 

Windows 10 64 bit download link gives you a setup file that is not compatible with Windows 10 64bit....

 

Nope. This pic captured with no steam running and about 10-15 seconds after I just closed internet explorer. Runs in the 400us~ normally.

 

GFs performance in Doom under Vulkan is fine, approximately on OpenGL level. However there are still several things missing from Vulkan renderer which skew the performance in AMD's favor at the moment. A) Async compute is enabled only on Radeons right now while it should help Pascal cards as well and B) id's using console shader intrinsics in Vulkan which are obviously compatible with GCN h/w only and are likely to be the bigger reason for performance gains on them in GPU limited situations than the fabled async compute. Both must be patched in by id as a separate codepath for GeForce cards, not much NV can do here. Welcome to the world of thin APIs.

It's not older, it's a different sub-branch.

 

To add to dr_rus's point re: Vulkan, Vulkan has started adding vendor specific features.

Originally, Vulkan parts based on Mantle had stripped away everything that would only work on AMD, but, as time passes-by, it looks like it's slowly adding those features back in. This is similar in a way to what happened with Opengl in terms of vendor specific paths. However, I do feel it's better than DX12 situation that locks you into Win10.

 

1070 user here, everything seems to be fine:


That's with chrome running.

 

Same for me with Latency mon

 

Works fine, no prob's. And I plan on getting Zen here in new year so not worried, lol. 21,000 3DMark score

 

works fine yeah, but could be working much better. just a strange combo. high end GPU, with a budget CPU. I certainly don't see that often.

 

Bench numbers are one thing, gaming performance is another.

 

I get that, but works fine with my baseball, and other. actually my baseball wouldn't play right till I got my 980. I can't play the real intense stuff, shooter games ect., I was really into Delta Force when it came out, but shortly after got cancer, had a stroke and my arthritis has my hands real screwed, so no fun playing something and if can't move hands fast enough to play and get killed instantly so I'm mainly sports games. And Zen will fix the rest. Thanks for everyones concern, lol.

 

Dont know why people are saying vulcan broken in doom? Getting about 30fps increase with my 1080.

 

At least for me, the game is unstable after Vulkan patch. Don't know if it's nVidia's fault or id Software.

 

Thanks for this..

 

Trust me if I had the cash, I'd have an Intel already, but really limited on disability budget. Sorry if I came off ****ty, wasn't my intent. Just upgrade when I can sometimes not in the order I want either.
