r385_40-2

Also NVCP feels snappier. Anyone else or me getting placebo?

 

So... what's "Whisper mode"?

 

https://www.geforce.com/hardware/technology/whispermode

" NVIDIA WhisperMode

A new ultra efficient mode that makes your plugged-in laptop run much quieter while gaming. It works by intelligently pacing the game’s frame rate while simultaneously configuring the graphics settings for optimal power-efficiency. "

 

The CUDA version is 9.0 and not 8.0 as the release notes

 

'OpenGL rendering GPU' option is new or what ?!

 

new main branch... r384 works perfectly here but going test these branch too

 

Obrigado Tks

 

Description:
Select the GPU to be used by OpenGL applications. Choosing a GPU that is part of an SLI or Mosaic group will effectively select every GPU in that group.

Typical usage scenarios:

• Choosing the more powerful GPU to render an application
• Rendering different applications on different GPUs

 

Can anyone explain the loader? Anything wrong?

 

BF1 still stutter on multi-GPU (sli dx12)

 

Yep, opening faster for me versus the previous driver.

EDIT: some short performance testing versus the previous driver = no change (3DMark Firestrike (although 1% increase in Graphics Score), 3DMark Timespy, Dirt Rally benchmark).

 

No, it had this warning since forever, doesn't affect functionality.

 

Thanks, but now have more loader. :x

 

Again, good news / bad news:

Good news: this driver have FINALLY fixed the issue introduced with Win10CU update, where an audio output would be stuck on an HDMI out even if said HDMI out is disabled by a user. For me personally this one makes this driver the best out of all Win10CU GeForce drivers.

Bad news: I've just had a GPU h/w failure which lead to a complete system lock with video output turning off when I've tried extending the desktop to a TV by Win+P. Since this is connected to the good news I feel like the fix they introduced may need more work. Haven't been able to reproduce the crash yet though so it may be related to me not doing a reboot after driver reinstall.

Driver installs VulkanRT 1.0.51.0 as opposed to 1.0.42.x of several previous versions. The driver itself support Vulkan 1.0.49.0 as opposed to 1.0.46.0 previously.

 

Good stuff, going to install right away.

 

task bar icon missing on both PC and laptop..guess a hot fix is on the way
