    Doom opengl first intro scene max FPS around 160 min 96 Vulkan max 200 min 110.
    Just read the release notes. no major fixes for me except Rise of the tomb raider crashing after a few hours of gameplay Fixed.

    and the Fallout 3, New Vegas, Skyrim crash is still not fixed, and now listed as an app issue. These games will not get patched, so if you want to play these games looks like we are forced to use 368.81 or older. NVidia originally said the next driver after 372.70 would fix this crash. Disappointed.

    So... they support a higher Vulkan RT now than AMD? This driver must be twice as fast as the previous one in Doom VK according to what I've read here!

    This crash seems to be OS related as it is triggered by WDDM 2.1 on any GPU, including AMD's and Intel's. This is something which should be patched by MS probably.

    Hmm.

    Ah, so they've updated the API redistributable, not the driver itself. Makes sense /s

    Ok, wonder if they are even aware of the issue, irritating to have to keep older drivers, and new games suffer.

    Can anyone cure my ocd and tell me how do you install the drivers?
    1-Do you use DDU to remove older driver (even if same branch) and install latest ?
    2-Uninstall old from control panel and install latest ?
    3-Install on top or update from older to newer one ?
    thanks

    It was 1.0.13 since the first R370 release I believe.

    _00-X means main branch, _XX-X means some other branch afaik. Doesn't mean that XX is newer than 00.

    Will install on top of 372.70 with clean install option, as usual. And reboot after install if this should be mentioned.

    Doom @ Vulkan still loads for ever, earlier 368.xx loaded faster.

    Will see now if vsync slowdown is fixed :nerd:

    Doom loads fine here, 42seconds from click to see 1st options screen (full-loading, no intro skipping). Worked fine with last driver too.

    As for Vulkan, it's the same situation as last driver, 1.0.13. AMD's latest driver runs Doom Vulkan 1.0.25 I believe.

    Ambient-occlusion setting still doesn't save.

    And it still has this weird slowdown by close encounters and by explosions.. at least in multiplayer, didnt play singleplayer much lately.


    It says 60fps and 16.67ms all the time, but image isn't smooth and looks laggy (ingame vsync on).
