    Neither. Latest Windows 10 1903 latest updates. Spectre fix disabled. Both tests are with the same variables in place except the GPU Driver Version that is changed. GPU frequencies are stock.

    Forza Horizon 4 "low streaming bandwidth" issue is still there (starting with 440.97).
    Still no acknowledgement of the issue from Nvidia.

    Easy repro : play more than 20 minutes across the map at high speed (in order to load a lot of different assets).
    The longer you play, the more it often appears.
    Having to restart the game every 15 minutes is not ideal, I have to roll back to 436.51 to play for hours without any issue.

    Here is a video in a replay, note that in game the issue just stops the car when there is no road, making it unplayable the more you play :


    It was also reported on Forza's forums : https://forums.forzamotorsport.net/...wrong-with-nvidias-newest-drivers-440-97.aspx

    I did report the bug first with the 440.97, still no answer from Nvidia, do I have to report it for each release ?

    @ManuelG is the issue tracked ?

    Actually, that is incorrect:

    Depending on your BIOS, all bios mitigations cam be stopped / disabled / enable (at least the bioses/ PC at my home and work can. If your bios can't make these changes, you cam always flash it to a version pre-microcode update, or do the hex modify.

    As for OS, you have to remove the Google built in mitigation by taking ownership, DCOM, trusted installer, powershell (admin) etc,.

    for the remaining OS built in mitigations, -->that's easy, this is from microsoft:

    If you run windows 10 enterprise LTSC or Windows server 2019 LTSC, you can disable ALL os mitigations with this registry entry:

    To disable mitigations for Microarchitectural Data Sampling ( CVE-2018-11091 , CVE-2018-12126 , CVE-2018-12127 , CVE-2018-12130 ) along with Spectre [ CVE-2017-5753 & CVE-2017-5715 ] and Meltdown [ CVE-2017-5754 ] variants, including Speculative Store Bypass Disable (SSBD) [ CVE-2018-3639 ] as well as L1 Terminal Fault (L1TF) [ CVE-2018-3615, CVE-2018-3620, and CVE-2018-3646 ]:

    reg add "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management" /v FeatureSettingsOverride /t REG_DWORD /d 3 /f

    reg add "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session Manager\Memory Management" /v FeatureSettingsOverrideMask /t REG_DWORD /d 3 /f

    Restart the computer for the changes to take effect.


    So in my house and work I only run windows Enterprise 10, Ubuntu, and Windows 2019 server Data Center, my personal home PC is on Win Srv 2019 Data Center as well. The wife's and kids' PCs are also windows 2019 Data Center. I can also disable telemetry and control if,when, and what gets updated.

    You can get windows 10 Enterprise LTSC and windows 2019 data center LTSC, no core limit, keys online for cheap. Download an ISO from MS and, after you learn the OS, have fun and some control over what it does or at least more control than over a generic windows install.

    Hope this helps, I'm glad to contribute

    I too am on a GTX 1060 (6G) so I tried these. I'm no expert, not by far actually.
    After trying to install 398.36 (which failed actually) I stick with the 411.70 for now.
    I've just too low a level on drivers (no bench marking, etc, just looking at games), but it "feels" better, more snappier.

    PS : In order to be able installing the 398.36, can i take something from the 411.70 to make that work? nvxx.inf?

    Techpowerup just printed out thier CoD MW benchmarks with 441.12

    note: I'm now on a 1070ti [perhaps won't keep it, just trying it - that's why you see my ol' 1060 below my nickname ;) ] and according to their runs, I'd be almost on par with a darn 1660ti on CoD MW!?!


    dunno, I have 2 friends with 1080ti and they're doing good as you. #weird-nv
    Anyway, I can't truly say THE VERY SAME for another pal with 1080 (and ones with 'slower' gpus)

    Hello: Longtime PC user. I have EVGA GTX-970 FTW+ and mostly play older games, since I haven't sprung for a new PC yet. Think I like the new $503 I9 just released but haven't read enough about it yet. Like whether it has dreaded built in graphics or not. Anyway, what is the best Nvidia driver for me? Should I always get the latest driver like I have been doing? Thanks in advance.

    You are forgetting that most of the rendering work is done in cpu command buffers.


    Manuel experienced a hang in FM7, and that was the last i saw from him on the matter.


    Where do you think the 1660ti is positioned at performance wise?

    Hi there

    Did you ever rendered with GPUs and compare drivers versions

    We are not talking here about the game rendering etc, we are talking more about the Octane, IRAY or Blender Cycles

    Do not compare games and actual renders, in most render engines CPU is not used if yes then only 5-10% depending on CPU

    If you don't know what you talking, please stop it mate

    Hope this helps

    Thanks, Jura

    The driver is meant for gaming and not professional rendering, correct?
    So are the consumer cards that are mentioned in this thread.

    So far SOTTR best bench to date for my system, but ROTTR is another story:mad:,Deus Ex about the same 48.8 vs49.2 , on insider driver 440.52 gave the best score for Time spy extreme , also GOW4 is running well at last :)

    Well this site tested Red Dead Redemption 2 Amazing how fast a GTX 1080TI is.

    G-sync compatible monitor's is not working the best with these drivers,need to change resolution in game to get rid of shimmer/hitch or whatever you would like to cal it.


    Graphics drivers
    • GeForce graphics cards use the 441.12 (download)

    No benchmarks, but they are running fine for me in Warframe, and I can see myself using the new Image Sharpening in some games too. Nice addition to the toolkit.

    Being limited by your monitor’s refresh rate is inherently a high-latency experience. If you can stop short of that you can maintain the low latency experience of the NVIDIA Low Latency Mode, so that’s what the new feature does.

    I filed a bug for this. When QA has reproduced the issue and our software team has looked into it, I'll share an update. If it is a driver bug, I'll add it to my top bugs list.

    Have to revert back to 441.08 this one has gsync issues with my monitor hp OMEN X27 240hz , very strange stutter and flashes when I play Ghost Recon Breakpoint specially when changing weapons or call for drone , only then this anomaly appears.
    Also lost effectively 20FPS in the same game on my msi RTX2080Ti Gaming TRIO X so back to the previous.
    Yes! I did use DDU form save mode before installing the new driver set ...no improvement .

    I seriously doubt offline renders that may take minutes to complete (a single image) would get choked by draw calls or anything done by the CPU when rendering via GPU.

    You're failing to understand the practical difference between "rendering" as in game / realtime versus actual rendering work.

    In games you need to draw multiple dozens of images per second, when rendering you are drawing just a single static image.

    I saw RD2 benchmark.. damn RX 5700 XT at RTX 2080 Super performance level is a little ''distracting'', I think (especially for their price) that RTX 2080 (including Super models) cards should perform much better, but here they only match Radeon VII and RX 5700 XT at 1440 and 4K even without RTX features on (RD2 does not support any RTX tech)..
    Tests were made on this drivers.
