    So far everything is about the same although minor performance changes put these closer to R495 than R510 I'd say.

    Which is the same as installing with "Clean install" checkbox.
    I am curious whether your advise is theoretical or you experienced some performance issues.

    Well, for once, this driver turned out, for me anyway, to be a complete and utter dud! I did everything I usually do and it initially seemed fine.

    Then, I ran Jurassic World Evolution 2. I wanted to look at the dinosaurs in the Species Viewer, only when I selected a dinosaur, the damn thing was invisible! I tried verifying the game files, unistalling and reinstalling the game and the silly creatures were still nowhere to be seen! I reinstalled 512.95 and everything is fine. This is the first time I've ever had this happen.

    Nope, this driver did NOT work for me! If you're a dinosaur fan, avoid this driver!!

    What do my sore eyes spot in Windows event viewer:
    Same on my brothers system with 3060 that runs at much higher voltage. Looks like flawed driver, dumping it...

    Working fine for me so far. Haven't played any games yet but I play mostly older games so I don't foresee them being a problem

    You are not alone https://steamcommunity.com/app/1244460/discussions/0/3417683648801240936/

    Appears to be an issue on RTX cards, Maxwell and Pascal are fine so far.

    Bug report, clips and reproduction steps forwarded to Nvidia via the official form at https://forms.gle/kJ9Bqcaicvjb82SdA

    Nice one! Hopefully they'll fix it with the next driver. The new game updates only came out on the 14 so they probably didn't have chance to test anything before they released the driver.

    I cannot open NVCP, I have uninstalled it and re downloaded it from windows store, but no go. This is serious :(

    I have rolled back to the previous drivers (using DDU) and still no GeForce Exp or NVCP

    @big ROBOT bill Why are you using the Windows store for anything?!? Should be common knowledge by now that before you install a new driver, you should deactivate your internet connection, hence you don't need any store for installing Nvidia driver. The drivers always come with NCP included, no need for additional steps or third party installs.
