NVIDIA GeForce 451.48 WHQL Drivers: Download & Discussion

None yet. I wouldn't be surprised to see Control being one of the first to support it, though. They are usually on the cutting edge.

 

Hello. Does anyone know if these new drivers give the option of 10bit output via HDMI?

Or you can kill it in Task Manager and thus restarting it.

 

Any benches comparing hardware scheduling on vs off?

 

The screen tearing in apps that aren't GPU accelerated (such as Windows Explorer) is still there.

 

Tested Detroit and Jedi: Fallen Order with this driver, and both games run great. Fallen Order does feel a bit smoother and more responsive with HAGS enabled.

 

It's a way the best whql Nvidia driver since a long time, a little bit better than 451.22 in performance, still didn't bench HAGS, and more games, i'll report when it's done

 

Should we use DDU before installing these or can we install on top of 451.22?

 

Is Geforce Experience dead or something?

 

i recommend ddu first always fam

 

The only issue I experienced in the games I tested with the previous stable and excellent v451.22 developer driver was Divinity Original Sin 2 Definitive Edition running at 10 fps (although, oddly, the Classic version ran fine on the same driver) so it is great news that it is fixed already.

What is a bit concerning though is the number of unresolved issues, some of which go back months such as the Forza Motorsport 7 graphical bug with kerbs. That has been listed as a bug for many months now so I am surprised it hasn't been fixed yet.

 

Yesterday I bought an MSI M/B Z390 Tomahawk ( special offer only 130€ from 190€ while in my country hardware is exceptionally expensive ) along with 2 970 EVO Plus SSDs. Did a clean install of Windows 2004. Previous driver was working great but hadn't had support for Hardware Scheduling and generally the new features.

Let's hope they're gonna be stable. If I need to disable anything related, like Game Mode or something, please, let me know. Thank you in advance.

P.S. 1: And I'm pretty sure this supports WDDM 2,7, right?

P.S. 2: I guess the DDU utility at this instance is mandatory in my opinion, especially for those who haven't had 450.xxx.

The last week Nvidia Control Panel got 2 updates within Windows Store. From 9.1.956.0 to 9.1.957.0 and now 9.1.958.0. Nevertheless, I encountered no problem anyway.

Out of curiosity, ASRock M/B? Mine couldn't shut down properly. After the command, fans will still working etc. Searched on the web and many have such problems with cheap ASRock M/Bs.

For you information, when you will enable Hardware Scheduling, you're gonna need restart in order to start working.

 

Right.

 

Yeah

 

It does.


edit: you guys are fast

 

No. Pascal and higher.

 

anyone registered any performance increase with that acceleration on?

 

just a quick question from an curious User here...

What is teh technical reason that the "Hardware-accelerated GPU Scheduling" only works with Pascal and higher and not Maxwell for example..
Im just interessted in the techical side of things and hope this can be answered

Best Regards

 

You can also create shortcuts on your desktop for shutdown or restart. Quicker than accessing start menu for that. Type location/path of new shortcut as follows:

Shutdown: C:\Windows\System32\shutdown.exe -s -t 00
Restart: C:\Windows\System32\shutdown.exe -r -t 00
