    I wanted to say a few words about World of Warcraft's dated graphics, but I don't think this is the right place, but as always, thank you for the driver.

    wait a minute they removed sli performance in dx11 for battlefield 1 ?????? in these drivers ?????

    what about dx12 ? cause i noticed sli was enabled but not working in dx12 as one card was hitting 99% usage and the other was 0% usage.....

    Let me guess they removed sli completely, that was there fix ? and optimization ? lol

    say it aint so :/

    not updating until i find out cause whats the point.

    No SLI at all in BF1 now and DE-MD seems about the same as 372.54.

    so you had 80-99% gpu load on 2 cards?

    only 50-60% on my 2x 1080, so SLi did not work on BF 1 open beta. Same fps as one card...

    Trying new driver now...

    I had good scaling with 372.54 but there was some flickering etc which is no doubt why they've removed it in 372.70.

    That's what 'Game ready' is, a promotional tool.

    In many cases it is also the furthest thing from the truth :rolleyes:

    Yea exactly :) I can't imagine that the driver will do any miracles to this antique game which is already as optimized as it can be.

    Is Vulkan v1.0.13 (disappointingly, this has not been updated since the last v372.54 driver) supposed to be slower than OpenGL v4.5.0 because on my PC I am playing DOOM at 4K and maxed out Ultra/Nightmare settings with TAA and with OpenGL it holds 60 FPS for 99.99999% of the time and feels fast and responsive. With Vulkan though, the game feels instantly laggy, whether played with the controller or mouse/keyboard, even when the framerate remains at 60 FPS (though Vulkan does dip far more to the low 50s FPS and back).

    I just don't get it. I thought Vulkan was supposed to offer BETTER performance than OpenGL. Why does it still feel so laggy and sluggish? Yes, I have V-Sync enabled but I did for OpenGL and that runs silky-smooth at all times. Vulkan only feels smooth outside of combat and things like smoke and particles seem to increase the laggy feel.

    Looks like NVIDIA still have some work to do to get Vulkan up to the same standard as OpenGL in my experience.

    Why?

    World of Warcraft is a game like any other game, and might need updated Drivers from time to time due to Game Engine tweaks.

    It's called an Artstyle.

    I keep the other words for myself as well as this is not the right place.

    PDF notes as usual:
    http://us.download.nvidia.com/Windows/372.70/372.70-win10-win8-win7-desktop-release-notes.pdf

    Quoted the new features, highlights, fixed issues and known issues parts:
    (I think it's called a Pip-boy rather than a PitBoy but eh whatever.)

    (Known issues list has grown a bit but as they do know about these issues they can also hopefully be fixed quickly in future driver releases. :) )
    (EDIT: Nothing too critical it seems after reading the list but the new Titan doesn't seem to like Mirrors' Edge Catalyst and there's a issue with Experience and Quantum Break on Steam plus Quantum Break on Steam and windowed display mode.)

    I remember with older drivers when they'd still tell you % + performance for x game, Wow would get in those optimization lists lots of times. Since Legion is such a big release they probably made tweaks for it to work smoothly without problems.

    Driver problems=Legion problems=people complaining at blizzard, blizzard doesn't want that.

    It's not NVIDIA who still has some work to do on Doom's Vulkan renderer.
