GeForce 285.38 BETA (Battlefield 3 Driver)

I've never ever used a registry cleaner or driver cleaner when doing a clean uninstall and reinstall of Nvidia drivers and never had a problem. Also since using the last few sets of drivers I have just installed over the top with no problems either.

 

Well, this messed up VLC for sure

 

You tried uninstalling and re-installing VLC, as i just tried it, and its fine, but previously i have had issues with VLC just randomly breaking, but never looked into it much as its not my main player.

Anyone compared this to older drivers with the BF3 beta, curious if that 38% is true or not.

 

I always uninstall/install drivers in this way:

1. Uninstall your current PhysX and driver through the control panel.
2. Restart and boot into safe mode (F8).
3. Run Driver Sweeper and clean both PhysX and nVidia display drivers.
4. Restart and boot to the regular desktop.
5. Install the new driver.
6. Restart.

 

In DI, in my case, there's an increase of performances no doubt.

My goal is to get some decent AA.

Im coming from 285.27 beta, and with my sli of 570 i couldn't play using the 0x0000F0C1 flag(SS)on 2xAA and 2xSGSS (in nvinspector). 45 fps but really shoppy. Now its way above 60 and smooth.
I dont know about that 38% gain, but its good.

i am globally happy with this set

 

Some Flickering in Battlefield 3, but could be from game as it is still beta !

 

Im around 45 FPS with Ultra settings. But GPU usage is only around 50% :bang:

 

Gpu usage always has been arround 60% for me, now and before, so i suppose the solution to this isn't out yet. (if that was a real issue) i don't care, just want decent fps with AA on

 

Just tried VLC player and its fine,make sure your not using alternative frame rendering(SLI) when running the player as this can cause the frames to be messed up when playing a movie,check your global settings either in nvidia control panel or nvidia inspector.

 

Does this new driver have the frame rate limiter they said was coming?

 

Next October WHQL!

Wat dos he means with frame rate limiter??

 

Gone back to 285.27

Gone back to 285.27, these were causing more stutters in DXHR... :3eyes:

Much happier with 285.27s.

 

Yah this works just fine and Nvidia added the option for Clean Install, which nukes the old driver and removes all the old profile settings, ect...

 

Cool! Downloading now!

 

guys i was able to get ultra settings working my 460 oced
800 core 1600 shader 2000 memory

get about 45 fps avg with 90% + gpu usage and (90% cpu usage)

everything seems to be working well but the image quality is not that much different coming from high

 

If you are talking about Dead Island my gpu usage is above 90% without vsync and forcing vsync on i have a steady 60fps.

 

I'm happy to see gtx 460 get 45 fps

 

For people who prefer Screen Tearing over V-Sync. So they can also have 60 FPS capped like us V-Sync users and keep the joy of Screen Tearing.

 

Fail! Registry Cleaner or CClearner. There is no need to use it if u know what ur doing.
